Pros

They offered great medical benefits. A first job where I was encouraged to call out when sick.

Cons

So I joined up as Apprentice, thinking I would be trading lower pay for the experience. Well, I was definitely wrong about that. After the first 3 months of training, all of us trainees were kinda dropped on project managers who did not know what to do with us. At that time I tried to reach out to the assigned project manager letting them know what I had been doing for the week to try to see if I could get some form of direction from them, which I got no response at all. After about a month of that, we were put back into training for another three months and then asked if we were ready to be put on projects. With a yes, we've been ready for a couple of months, don't know why we were put back into training. Then we were getting interviewed by different project managers and learning about different projects. When I found a project I thought I would have been good for and asked about it, I was told I'm being reserved for a specific client. So I dropped it and then when I was finally told I was officially going with the client I spent 2 months being told to watch more Udemy Courses. Then they started trying to get me on a project finally being told weekly that I'm going be put on a project. then they ask me about my professional experience which I responded with I'm fresher/Apprentice and the project manager told me I can't be a fresher/Apprentice we need professional experience. After trying to tweak my resume to get me on a project for 2 months I was let go. An entire year wasted hoping this apprenticeship would give me the experience to become a better developer.

Pros

2 at-home days per week

Cons

Mandatory office time even when entire team is halfway across the country. Lack of upwards mobility. Constant pressure to inject generative AI into tasks that it can’t or shouldn’t do. Small increases in pay occur only once every 2-3 years.
