Terrible environment, worst management

Business Outlook

Pros

Absolutely nothing good came out out my time in this terrible place, only the few good friendships I made.

Cons

Terrible management with no "peoples/human skills". Bullying at the workplace with no action from HR. Extremely poor work-life balance with really long hours and zero recognition of your hard work and commitment. No training. No career progression. Terrible pay. Almost non-existent support from team leaders when delivering the work. Zero company culture or values. Literally the worst place I have ever worked at. If you can avoid it, do yourself a favour and do not even consider working there.
