Vantaggi

1. Good for your resume. 2. You learn quickly because you have to, or you'll be on secret probation. 3. You quickly seek out like-minded people who you quickly befriend solely based on the hubris of middle-management.

Svantaggi

These "Cons" apply specifically to the Information Technology Department (ITD) 1. Middle-management ruins quality workers. I cannot stress this enough. Middle-management needs to be taken out of the corporate structure because a ton of layers of work is already expected just to get the job done. 2. Had it not been for my immediate 2 middle-managers, one for Production Support, and one for Projects (both of which I had to report to multiple times per day), I might still be at the company today. 3. Training was completely OTJ, and there was never any budget for eternal classroom (or even online) SAP training. 4. If you don't drink the Kool-aid, you're immediately an outcast. This happened to me around the end of my first year working there. 5. ITD has / had some amazingly talented Functional and Technical employees, but unfortunately the middle-management were successful in driving most away claiming that "they just didn't fit in with the culture" 6.

Vantaggi

Not much, if you want a place that's okay with mediocrity, then welcome.

Svantaggi

They blindly follow industry trends not industry standards. We have an initiative to use AI to increase productivity, without a proper plan, without security in mind and lack of general understanding. Consistently understaffed, for example there are teams or parts if teams that have max 4 developer type roles with 36 apps or APIs to support - this has lead to inconsistent code and effort as employees are spread too thin to be able to deliver quality work. Management refuses to take responsibility for issues that arise from being understaffed. Teams are not consistent in what tools and pipelines are used causing even more confusion and delays. Double standards: they don't want to properly promote or give raises to hard workers. Upper management made it clear to direct managers that "meets expectations" was a fine thing to give... To employees doing more than their fair share of work and are doing work outside of their role since they have no one else to do it do to being understaffed.
