Good if you want: Stability for the employees who work and listen to the higher management. (knee Licking) Work environment looks very rich. Salesforce / slight system exposure

Cons

1. Work-life balance can be tough Reports of long hours and high workload Boundaries not always clear 2. Management & team dependency Experience varies heavily based on manager Some mention micromanagement and lack of support 3. Slower career growth Promotions can be delayed Not always fast-paced growth like product companies 4. Compensation is average Salary is decent but not top-tier Increments may not match the market in some roles 5. Work from office / hybrid pressure Many roles require office presence Less flexibility compared to startups. Not ideal if you want: Fast growth like product startups High salary jumps Strong design-driven culture

Pros

They provide a wealth of learning materials to further your career.

Cons

My experience was that upper management does not understand what those in lower level positions do, and they don't take advantage of experience and knowledge of those below them to make strategic decisions.
