Pros
If you are liked you are looked after, but you easily can fall out of graces
Cons
Everything is discretional, you are promised the sun and the moon while you are recruited, but when it comes to do those promises, it is casually forgotten or you need to wait ages cause everybody in the leadership need to approve it (again) Low salaries which you are required to keep quite about or lie of if anyone asked. Salary reviews every half a year, but review is not an increase! The only company event you are invited to a "Chaiman's coffee club" where you are shown the same presentation as on any other meeting and fed more lies about opportunities which are only open for a selected few. And of course this meeting is mandatory and if you can't attend you are grilled for a reason. Targets are close to impossible to reach, you feel you must sacrifice your holidays, lost many days at the end of the year as you can't carry them over, only if you are part of the few who actually can. When you ask why, you are told you need to learn to manage your holidays better. When you dare to leave the company, you instantly labelled a bad employee and treated as such, but strictly kept for the full time of notice.
