Pros

The workload is okay if you know how to set boundaries with your local supervisors. Otherwise, they will keep adding tasks with no additional pay and will expect you to perform at a full-time capacity for all those tasks. You are lucky if you get a good local supervisor who can back you up when your shareholder is being unfair. Usually that is not the case. You will thrive in this company if you are desperate to keep a livelihood to feed your family and know how to swallow all injustices and random inconveniences that add nothing to the business continuity.

Cons

RTO increase from 1x a week to 2x a week with no renegotiation of salary/allowance. No overtime pay even with company mandated events outside of office hours (town halls, employee engagement). Upper management is stingy and you really feel them put the burden of cost cutting on employee comfort when they keep piling onto your workload. A lot of employees are unhappy with the aggressive means that upper management is taking to ensure that older hires quit on their own so they can replace them with lower-paid new hires (increased RTO, micro-managing utilization to see who they can bombard with additional allocation, a lot of redundant micromanagement tasks that take away time to do your actual job).
