Pros

It is a decent place to learn. Its a great resume builder.

Cons

They billed us at 44 hours a week, saying that they pay at least 10% more than the competition. Our team had high turnover and everybody was leaving for fewer hours, more flexible work schedules, and better pay. Most people ended up quitting for a raise. The company demanded 37 billable (actual working hours) per week, which did not include assisting/training teammates, checking email, updating billing, or meetings. It was difficult to hit hours and impossible to get ahead.

Pros

Good thing national teams allow remote work opportunity because there's not enough space in the local offices anyway, but you might just end up working after hours more often than not.

Cons

No pay raises year after year which is an actual pay decrees when taking into account inflation, fake "flexible" PTO, required to work 45 hours a week without any overtime, raises, bonus, or any financial reward which actually matters. You have to do ridiculous workday feedbacks, and self review every quarter but it means nothing because they don't even consider the feed back you've received when laying off. It is your job to find work, and when there is't enough work for you it's your fault, not leadership's. You get promised new projects and they are always delayed for months at a time and many times nothing even comes out of it. Pretentious company that likes to call itself "family" - only red flags here.
