Pros
Generally colleagues, peers are helpful
Cons
- No career advancement and limited exposure due to bad manager and management. All training, exposures learned by people leader aren't shared to downline - mid, junior staff are expected to learn by themselves in order to teach their manager. Kind of abusive of power especially when the people leader is from a different region, without relevant experience, skills and not understanding local culture. It creates more burden and stress to the staff, including the need to help the manager to decide what to do. - manager is lack of both soft and hard skills but only know creating pressure, politicking and acts like department head. - staff is required to work weekends, when sick or public holiday without humanising to allow time off for rest, run their own errands after long hours, weeks of continuous working on calendar days. - vacancies kept being posted but no hiring at all. This creates additional burden to the existing staff. - Only "yes" men, women without relevant skills are hired and promoted
