Pros

Remote working policy, if they haven't cancelled that.

Kontras

1. Very unstable environment (my line management changed 3 times in the span of 10 months), lots of redundancies and fear. 2. Political and opaque. Lots of senior titles in the business but don't expect them to answer questions or make decisions. 3. M&As happen constantly, no vision/strategy apart from the good old revenue target. Don't expect innovation ideas to be taken seriously by senior management. 4. Don't expect actual product management responsibilities or learning experience. Bad/no data, outdated technology. The company is the opposite of product led/driven, everything down to the tiniest chage has to go through a project process. product managers are just scapegoats when a badly run project cannot be delivered. 5. Forget about any product practices/ framework, management do not care. 6. This is the best one, the so called process are made up by the VP of delivery and even the project/delivery team cannot keep up. It's never formally communicated to the wider business, everyone plays the game of "guess the process" on a daily basis. The list goes on...
