Pros
1. Over-promotion in the management (more than you deserve, can be shameful sometimes) 2. You get promoted every year if you if joined before IPO even though you may not deserve and technology is a total failure 3. Can get promoted even before successful customer delivery and failed working cells 4. So many promotions to Directors, Senior Directors and 2x promotion to Vice President (in six months) 5. Sometimes you can get promoted to fill in the void, they need to show off the shareholders they have VPs for new departments (after the VPs leave within a year or so), so wait for someone to leave or trick them to leave the company
Cons
1. Toxic workplace (backstabbers colleagues, who looks at your computer screen on your activities) 2. Poor training and no vision for employee career growth 3. Lack of collaboration among engineers and managers 4. Strained relationships b/w R&D and manufacturing, among r&D engineers, among the manufacturing folks 5. Leadership fights openly with each other even opening in meetings or team group chats 6. Directors in manufacturing can yell at you because they don't know how to manage and have never managed 7. Directors can be micromanagers, lack any industry experience beyond their current R&D role
