Pros
- ok benefits. - good Employee Assistance Program (you’ll need it for the job stress). - decent bonus if you’re a management favorite (performance doesn’t necessarily matter).
Cons
- no work life balance. - long hours and weekends; no comp time for exempt employees to balance overages. So prepare to loose money at the end of the year because any raise and/or bonus won’t make up for the extra hours worked. - do more with less and work until it’s done philosophy but the work is never ending. - raises are much lower than industry standard. Prepare to work a lot of hours for a minimal raise, if any, at year end. - company eliminated work from home and frowns upon requests for a work from home day. You cannot work from home if your child is sick (PTO must be used). - promotions are difficult to get. - layoffs usually occur at year end just before Christmas. - company uses an offshore model.
