Business Outlook

Pros

Company used to be very focused on work life balance, though I do not see much left of this

Cons

Below average salary. High workload due to constant hiring freezes with no hope in sight of workload being reduced. Financial results never really improving. Bogus presentations to raise morale where you will be bombarded with figures of speech such as "we must stay laser focused" or "don't sit on the fence" but very little actual usable strategy communicated. Higher management does not give the impression they know what they are doing.
