Cons

hypocritical, inconsistent, psychopathic Mgmt ( 99% men) who are there just to self-serve and manipulate. Sure they pay lip-service to the cause de-jour, but nothing ever improves. Its an incestuous business with no upside or advancement for women. If you keep your head down and not ask any questions, keep your blinders on, and just do work like an automaton, you might be safe for a while through obscurity. If you try to advance you will be faces with a cesspool of ugly politics that will suck the soul from you. My advice, stay for 1-2 years, collect your paycheck, do the minimum, keep out of politics and move on to something better as soon as possible. this is not a place where imitative, diversity, innovation is valued or rewarded. These people are so disorganized, they could not find their way out of a paper bag during the day with a torch.
