Pros

Agile, work from home. Good salary and benefit

Cons

Management level has low IT skill. With that as an excuse , they passed all the admin job that required IT skill such as vlookup etc to young employees. Young employee with high qualification are always be doing admin/data entry. Misuse of employees knowledge. After all, managers are unwilling to learn and increase their IT knowledge and to keep up to technology. Even worse, managers protect their ‘turf’ not letting you to get into the ‘real’ job. Lousy system. A big company but not investing their money into technology. Making the work flow even worse. What’s with putting the right person to the right place? With agile, you won’t get close relationship with your team in the department. Some even misuse ‘work from home’. Didn’t even work from home.
