      Pros

      Diverse entry-level staff component, some of them are nice to work with.

      Cons

      Neither the management nor the HR care about you, insanely low salary, nil respect, expected to work long hours, they prefer hiring their close-knits for advanced positions instead of investing in excellent current staff for promotions. They are finding whatever "reason" to lay off good people to avoid the cost and "justify" themselves.

      Pros

      - The work is intellectually engaging and gave me many chances to grow technically. - I learned a lot from talented coworkers and appreciated being part of projects with real-world relevance. - There was also good exposure to translating technical work into clear, usable takeaways.

      Cons

      - The work can be intense and detail-heavy, and deadlines can sometimes feel demanding. - Priorities may shift quickly, which can make it hard to plan ahead. - At times, the volume of revisions and fast pace can be stressful.
