Pros

Salary is reasonably set to ensure applicants want to join.

Cons

1. Preferential treatment is a norm. People are hired and promoted based on who they know and not what they know. 2. Managers set unrealistic goals that cannot be met. 3. Managers use PIPs to force employees to quit, even when PIPs are unfounded and goals are unrealistic. 4. The company is a dog eat dog environment. Building relationships with coworkers is discouraged. Team members are not encouraged to share responsibilities or experience. 5. The turnover rate is absurd. Most employees quit after 1 year.

Pros

The team was great to work with and the general work environment was hard to beat

Cons

It felt like sales and upper management completely dropped the ball with our product. We had what could have been a large success in the market but we were too ignored to really push ourselves towards new customers. Pretty much the whole team was laid off as a result.
