Pros

Talented and supportive colleagues in many teams Opportunities to work on interesting projects Some flexibility in work arrangements

Cons

The company regularly lays off qualified employees, sometimes in large groups, with little warning, often favoring cost savings over performance or contribution. Management is not transparent—line managers often cannot explain strategic decisions, and upper management rarely shares the financial situation or reasoning behind layoffs. Terminations can happen via a single call with minimal support or explanation, which is demoralizing and stressful for employees. Career growth and job security are unpredictable due to frequent restructuring.

Pros

There were no pros that I know of.

Cons

The company would set the maximum hours allowed on a specific publication project, and that cap was always insufficient, so the freelancer would be expected to work for free, despite scope creep. Also, timelines were unreasonably short. Poor communication with management meant things took longer than they should have. I left after one project.
