Hierarchical Structure: The company has a relatively hierarchical organizational structure, which might limit the flexibility in decision-making and slow down innovation in some cases. Slow Career Progression: Career advancement can be slow for some employees, particularly if there are limited senior roles available or if the company prioritizes internal transfers over promotions.

Training May Be Inconsistent: While the company offers opportunities for learning, the training and development programs may not be consistent across all departments or teams. Limited Remote Work Options: Depending on the role and department, remote work options may be limited, particularly in roles that require hands-on or on-site involvement with products.
