Pros
1. Strong compensation and benefits
2. Good brand recognition in the industry
3. Talented individual contributors
Cons
1. Serious leadership issues at the mid-management level
2. Extremely high turnover within certain teams (approximately 30% of employees lost in my group within one year)
3. Poor employee survey results with little to no visible accountability or corrective action
4. Culture of fear rather than trust—employees felt uncomfortable speaking up, and some openly feared retaliation
5. Problematic managers were widely known internally, yet remained in place
