Business Outlook

Pros

- Good salary package inline with other corporations

Cons

- Middle management is a complete disaster because of lack of experience and/or skills. - There are cases where very inexperienced individuals with a total lack of leadership skills have been promoted to middle management positions from administrative roles in record time simply because they are having an affair with some manager. - A lot of positions are covered uniquely for your relationship with any manager, which leads to highly pay positions covered by very inadequate people. - Bullying of employees whom are not personal friends with any manager is accepted and even encouraged depending on the department.
