No Growth, too much politics, senior management not empowering

Business Outlook

Pros

Great benefits, flexible work options, good time-off policy. Can find challenging opportunities if you excel at work.

Cons

Forget about career growth if you are sincere and hard-working but want to stay away from politics and back-stabbing games. VPs and Directors from Old School of thought are still sticking to their bossy and arrogant culture while the CEO is trying to be more open, flexible and trying to create an empowering culture.
