Pros

Salary/package work/life balance was great

Cons

The work was non-existent. Everyone knows it's a joy ride with little/meaningless work but no one says anything. Managers are clueless, technical engineers aren't exactly technical. For a career, this isn't the one, you will become a vegetable due to the little to no thinking required. I could train a 12 year old to do the role it was that basic, some of the 'experienced' engineers had no clue about fundamental engineering principles. Weekly project meetings for half an hour, with no progress, and spend the rest of the time doing personal errands. It was great to spend time with the family! It's great to start with, but novelty quickly wore off as it is pointless and only detrimental to your career by staying at that place.

Pros

Nice colleagues, fast paced environment. Industry can be quite challenging, complex I'd say.

Cons

Due to market liberalization there are a lot of changes to cope with. The company is navigating through changes and transformation so you have to keep up with them (changes)
