Good to learn but leave before you get stuck

Business Outlook

Pros

Good learning curve You get access to a lot of projects and clients quickly

Cons

Upper management does not know how to manage. High attrition = blame it on the industry. If they recieve negative Employee feedback = employees are just asking for more, need to lower expectation, should be grateful they have a job. Gaslighting, favoritism, intrusiveness into personal lives, lack of boundaries and work life balance. They clearly state if you seek WL balance, this is not the job for you. That is not a job for anyone then. Increment or bonus values - global numbers are down, or we are not doing well - same story each time; either way the employees need to hustle more even when they do that the entire year. Can't get leaves easily. They would rather hire a new employee on a hike than retain their own.
