Pros

Overtime pay, work from home option, for a person right out of college and not having many bills to pay the salary is good.

Cons

Benefits - you expect me to give up 100+ of my pay (which is weekly) no thanks, work-life balance - depending on your group you may be in the office til 9pm and may have to work weekends, the help desk - unless you like talking to a person that wont go off script to fix a problem expect many issues when you call, took over 3 months to finally get the proper access to everything.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
