Pros

Great pay, very plush office environment, offices are always in great locations, nice perks like an all you can eat snack bar, chauffered car to drop you to and from work if you're scheduled at certain hours, attracts very intelligent people.

Cons

Very grueling environment, hires horrible trainers that don't train new employees properly, sink or swim mentality, prides itself on an 'open door' office environment but is actually the polar opposite, delivers candidates lots of fake promises in the interview process such as international opportunities, quick advancement, etc. senior management is trained to brainwash employees to operate on the fear of losing their jobs, management is free to practice verbal and emotional abuse on employees as a way to garner results, constant stress makes everyone extremely bad tempered so there is little positive interaction with colleagues, absolutely no room for creativity or ideas.

Pros

Great Office, Free Snacks and plenty of social events

Cons

Be prepared for a heavily politicised culture — it's pervasive and affects day-to-day working life significantly. The organisation suffers from clear in-group favouritism at the leadership level, where certain groups are visibly preferred for opportunities, recognition, and advancement. This creates an uneven playing field and quietly damages morale for those outside those circles. Leadership collaboration leaves a lot to be desired. In four years, I didn't experience a single structured team-building or bonding initiative — a telling sign of how little investment goes into people and team cohesion. Perhaps most concerning is the approach to compliance. Raising legitimate concerns or challenging existing practices is met with significant resistance from senior stakeholders, rather than genuine engagement. A culture where pushback replaces accountability is one worth approaching with caution.
