Pros

I can't think of any thing good to say.

Cons

They review your performance through peer review groups. Meaning people you don't even work with review your performance. If someone in the gang don't like you your done.

Over worked

Pros

The company has flexible work schedule - even before COVID

Cons

The company goes through a global restructure every 5 years and lays off. They are currently going through one and almost every team under finance is over worked. I'm not sure they care about their employees only results.
