Worst company ever, they do not care about the employees, they will go to any limit to spoil your career once they don't like you. Senior leadership is the worst. They will also cheat on your full and final settlement if you are not a manager favorite. Extreme level politics. Beware, i have seen so many people joining and leaving within months.
