Pros

The company has lost its value due to rogue management.

Cons

The company recently laid off several employees very abruptly and the senior management did not even address the layoffs. Lack of communication from management and poor leadership. Current scenario seems like an internal power grabbing move. Upper management used employees as scapegoats to self save. Lack of attention to employee well being and development. Current employees are actively seeking opportunities to leave.
