Work wise since its a big organisations, you should be lucky enough to get good work, else its mostly maintaining and adding few features on already existing code base. But they do support you with learning, for that you need to spend extra hours apart from your daily job to learn extra.

The Managers are not well trained in their new roles, I faced severe discrimination from an African American Manager.
Absence of clear goals and objectives and micromanagement and no development discussions in my case.
They throw you like a vegetable if you raise your voice… so I am not sure of what inclusivity they refer to.

Until you resign, managers will not recognize your worth. Pay is less when compared with competitors. Promotions happen rarely. Managers will not allow you to take leaves.
