Pros

Foreigners are cheap so may foreigners are hired in place of locals (if that can be considered a pro at all)

Cons

High turnover in the company so much so that we dont recognise half the people in the office anymore. People come and go so quickly that one minute they are here and the next they have disappeared. HR has been asked to "clean up" the mess that managers have created and deal with their bad decision making. Company holds meetings to try to find dirt on employees and try to make them leave. Complete lack of professional HR practices and non existent workforce planning an this is a huge shame for a company that considers itself "inclusive". So many good people have come to the company only to leave with a bad taste in their mouths and without ever finding their footing due to lack of role clarity and proper onboarding.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
