Pros

Pay is decent, recently some adjustment was made that reduced in hand salary.

Cons

Poor and confused leadership. favouritism is at peak now. 3 days mandatory work from office with no place to sit or eat. No growth opportunity (you may get if you know how to lick boots). On the name of DEI, only women are appreciated and promoted irrespective of skill sets and capabilities. Most of the women in leadership are against the opposite gender and ensuring all the opportunity and perks are given to women.

Pros

There are many diverse roles and opportunities within the company, which can make it easier to explore different career paths and avoid feeling stuck or bored.

Cons

Company lacks clear direction and has significant internal disorganization. Employees are often expected to take on multiple roles without appropriate compensation or support. Despite consistently being a high performer, I left feeling undervalued — after covering two roles, there wasn’t even a simple thank you upon departure. To make matters worse, eight months after leaving, they are now claiming I owe over $5,000 in PTO that had previously been considered settled at the time of my exit. Overall, the experience left a very negative impression and highlighted serious internal process issues.
