    You're just a number.
    The good thingsMost people get along and workload is reasonable. Was once a nice place to work at.
    The challengesCulture has turned borderline woke. Much less internal promotions and room for career development. High turnover of staff. Many co-workers have left due to the change in culture of the workplace.
