      Avoid– Toxic Culture; Terrible Management

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Salary and benefits. ( only if your there long term).

      Cons

      The job itself can provide short-term experience, but the company is plagued by poor management and lack of people skills. There’s constant restructuring and instability, making it impossible to plan a career here. The culture is toxic — employees undermine each other to climb the ladder. HR is unhelpful and inconsiderate, reflecting the company’s overall management style. Benefits are decent, I cannot recommend this company for anyone seeking growth, stability, or a healthy work environment. Do not trust the positive reviews, There is nothing good with this company aside from the salary.
