Work life balance is not good sometimes due to clash of working between different teams. Promotions and appraisal are also not good due to company unclear goals and very wasteful meetings that serves no purpose. After Dec 2022, Job security is not looking good but that I believe is fully dependent on the team manager’s decision and planning.
