Pros

Many new opportunities in the organization, from a development perspective. Several training programs to expose you to latest technologies. If negotiating for a new position, they can be competitive.

Cons

You cannot remain in the same position for long as they are not likely to promote from within. They're more generous with new people coming into a team, either from outside the company or in the right situations, from another team. Also, heavy reliance on offshore contractors instead of focusing on building their internal talent or even hiring FTE.

Pros

The pros are the benefits, the pay could be higher for all that you learn and have to go through for ten weeks. They offer tuition assistance and opportunity for upskilling and advancing in such little time and the remote flexibility is great too

Cons

Management sucks and of course they have their favorites and then they have the people they target like myself. They micromanage bad and are quick to give you an occurrence for nothing. Their systems are so slow and then they blame you for being five ten minutes late logging in. They want you to tell them when you get up to breathe, go to the bathroom and they push for you to take calls and know boatloads of info after on 3 weeks of training. What they don’t know is that I will sue for any wrong doings or discrimination and I keep records of everything
