Pros

Most people work no more than 40 hours a week here, 9-5 is the norm, any time you need a day off for personal issues or any other reasons it is easy to get time off, can do as much work as you please on any given day, most employees show up and leave the office as they please as there is not alot of active management

Cons

Not much is expected of employees and as such most don't have alot of responsibility or work to do, limited opportunities for advancement as not many employees leave, for the most part there is no overall management in charge, employees generally do what they want with no accountability, clients frequently complain that employees do not return their calls or emails for weeks on end

Pros

Job only as good as immediate manager. Salary is Ok ish Benefit options are ok not great.

Cons

1) Retaliation is a way of life at this company going back to 2018 and becoming worse since 2) Mid level managers are very efficient at passively insulting the Teams they are responsible for. 3) It is nearly impossible to advance in the company. 4) When you try to post to another department - your Mid level manager will do the best to stop you from advancing. Some have close friends in HR that will even have you submit a new application in an attempt to accuse the other department of recruiting you. I have experienced this. 5) The only way to increase pay and experience is by leaving the company. 6) It use to be a culture of lets help others when there is a problem, now it is lets find who to blame for upper mangers rushing a project before all risks are identified. 7) If you are taking a new Job - professionally push for higher Salary once you are in raises will be very small.
