Pros

- Easy to switch roles and verticals within the company - Easy to get promotions and climb up the corporate ladder especially if you come from a management trainee program

Cons

- Upper and middle management lack experience though they have good presentation and oratory skills. Unfortunately good speeches don't help when planning and execution is terrible. - Management lacks wisdom to understand that processes are important. They boast about the ability to work in chaos when they should be fixing the chaos. - Lacks ethics (though they are critical about legal compliances) where vendors don't get paid on time and sometimes not paid at all. - Though they constantly parrot the word DPC (Dream People Culture), the company lacks vision, has terrible inexperienced arrogant people and a culture of show-off without substance. - The processes are so poorly managed that everyone is constantly stressed out, and busy covering their behind while preparing for the blame game that ensues on whatsapp groups. Instead of figuring out what went wrong and fixing, they engage in unhealthy finger pointing games. - Work/Life balance is a joke in this company especially if you are in sales or trade marketing- Weekends is when you have events - so your holidays goes for a toss. Market visits go up till 2am. You are expected to be available 24 7 on calls and on whatsapp groups.

Pros

-Dynamic work environment with new challenges everyday -Easy to pick and choose paths i.e. technical vs management -High turnover means there are a lot of job openings -You learn all the ways cost can be cut -Lots of different roles available to you if you have the will power/competence -Learn about a truly good management system

Cons

-Despite their motto there is hardly a focus on employees -At entry levels there is some meritocracy but as you go up it is all political -Cutting cost is the number one goal (ZBB) regardless of the impact on quality or standards (sometimes unethical) -Upper echelons full of politics -very little expertise remaining within the company to learn from (high turnover) -You cannot plan to have a career here (unsustainable work life) -Probably universal but there is no work life balance if you hope to be promoted/ given raises of any kind (worked 50+ hours every week as salaried)
