Pros

Ignore the fake four star reviews, all paid for. One friendly advice after years of getting stuck there: WIDE BERTH!

Cons

The most miserable and toxic work environment, rotten from the top. Bullying is commonplace even expected, heavy into politics. All the initiatives that are trying to counteract this are weak and no one really takes them seriously (LGBTQ, Diversity, Anti harassment etc....) Zero prospects for progress unless you are a brown-nose uptight corporate muppet. Learning is actively denied by superiors. Mundane daily tasks. Outdated equipment, outdated values, outdated, profit-first oriented brand. Bottom line: look elsewhere, there are much better companies/gigs out there.
