Pros

I can't think of a pro about this place. I guess the location is good if you live in the city.

Cons

Unless you want to be treated like a child and be disrespected every single day, I suggest you run, and run fast and far away. This place doesn't have any trust in their employees or understand that life happens outside of work. Family stuff and doctors appointments happen, but this place doesn't care or seem to get that. Additionally, you must work 9+ hours a day. If you leave one minute before that, you will get yelled at. They also hold mandatory end of month meetings AFTER hours, so on top of your 9 hour day you must stay for these, or again, you will get yelled at like a child. Some of us have families and children we must get home to, but this place doesn't care. I've never seen such an inflexible place of employment in my entire career. I've never felt so untrusted in my entire career. I always felt like I was being watched. Also a very catty and toxic environment, which starts at the director level and above. I'm well into my career and have never experienced people questioning my integrity until I got to EDQ. In fact, all of my previous employers have always tried to counter me when I gave my notice, so to be treated like a child at this place really says something. I've literally seen so much turnover in my life at one company in such a short amount of time. My advice is not to take a job here, even if you're incredibly desperate. Something else will come along! It's not worth the distress.

Pros

Decent salary & benefits, monthly no internal meeting days

Cons

Friendly reminder that HR does not care about you. They care about staff with seniority, whom they will allow to retaliate despite that being against company policies. Think twice about reporting the higher ups because it will come back to haunt you, guaranteed. Also, AI is the only thing that matters anymore. Watching the volume of once-impressive colleagues become so single and simple minded through constant AI usage is not only disappointing but genuinely alarming. Thinking for oneself is no longer the standard, it seems, and speaking against such unfettered use of AI in all things will get you professionally ostracized.
