Pros

Great exposure to projects and clients of all sizes. Really smart professionals with extensive backgrounds that you can learn from and use to your advantage to help you progress.

Cons

Terrible work life balance; drastically underpaid; little to no bonuses; financial compensation is poor. Burn out is inevitable especially the more that you perform and deliver the more that is expected of you, which consistently turns into working most weekends and every single late night.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
