Pros

Working from home on Fridays. Coffee chat culture. Not much stress/pressure but job can be boring. Flex days are given.

Cons

The culture is very cliquey. Office politics is more important than one’s work ethic. Lack of support from HR. Lack of support from colleagues. Terrible on boarding process. Huge if not major disconnect from upper management to lower management - plenty of miscommunication.
