Pros

great supervisor, lots of professional development opportunities

Cons

insane workload and expect you to be available for work 24/7. some teams are drowning and others have no resourcing. layoffs happen completely randomly and they lay off people who are 100 percent billable. profit share is bs and you get nothing as a junior member

Pros

Supportive and collaborative colleagues across the broader team which made my day-to-day interactions positive.

Cons

My reporting manager was not supportive and often created a stressful, toxic work environment rather than enabling growth or collaboration. The role came with unrealistic workload demands and an expectation to deliver flawless results while navigating unreliable and poorly maintained systems - all under unsupportive and toxic leadership.
