Pros

Ability to work from home or remotely

Cons

Constant and extreme pressure on utilization, leadership is flagrantly out of touch with staff, never-ending initiatives with absurd nicknames and acronyms, antiquated and unstable systems, low pay, lack of career growth opportunities, mediocre benefits, unfair practices for hiring to highest level positions, inept supervisors for the rank and file, open-concept workspace in most offices.
