Pros

Policies on paper are good.

Cons

The management is old fashioned with scope of innovation in the team. If anyone talks about innovation, they are targeted or put on pip or fired. The new managers are ruining the culture. A bunch of oldies feeding their egos. Layoffs every 6 months will give you mental health issues.
