Great place to work

Pros

Nowadays, all companies preach work/life balance, treat your employees well, etc. This is the first place that I've worked that actually practices it. They treat us well and seem to care that we have a life outside of work.

Cons

The GPT Start Program training was great but I had been here about 5 moths before I got to go to it. I was on a 3 month contract to hire and after getting hired it took a couple of months to get to go to it. Having the training earlier would have been much better.

Pros

Lots of places can be improved. Lots work can be done (maybe this is a con).

Cons

1. Way too many contractors start to work on projects without knowing the big pictures. 2. Management team does not know how to get people work together. Instead, they definitely know how to fence their resource and ownership. 3. Some colleagues (especially cross-team) is not so willing to share things until you have their managers talk to them. 4. Internal wiki documentation is not monitored and most of them are out of date and should be purged. 5. People start to leave without proper knowledge transfer.
