Pros

GA does a very good job at ensuring human-centred design processes are at the foundation of every project. For students, they will provide you with a solid understanding of user-first design principles.

Cons

With any education provider, it's not always easy to tailor their approach for individuals with different levels of professional background. They do a good job comparatively though at tailoring their approach. Difficult to critique as GA is always open to feedback and I've seen they always take feedback into consideration.

Pros

Lots of opportunities to learn and build experience with Fortune 500 and 1000 client projects, can offer flexibility since the work is 100% remote and contracts are on a per-project basis. Can be great for career growth if you're motivated to work hard and hustle

Cons

People are spread very thin on lots of projects, timelines can be very rushed and high-pressure. This can be a result of client pressure, but also frequently comes from internal issues with communication and poorly defined scope of work.
