Pros

There is a great work culture here and feel like it’s been a awesome place to learn and grow in my field. Work life balance , benefits, and pay are all good here as well. The best part of this job is the people I work with. My last job was similar but it was difficult because of poor management and team dynamics, here it has been such a positive experience and makes the job so much better.

Cons

No complaints here, I really enjoy working here.

Pros

The 401k is good, that's it..

Cons

The main complaint is having to beg for work within the company. They don't have enough work to give you and then complain that your overhead is too high. Communication and training is terrible. I've sent numerous emails to coworkers only to be ignored. You have to keep reaching out for someone to respond to you. The project managers also don't budget the labor for their projects well. They're very tight about how many hours you should spend on an assignment and it's often unreasonable, like read and compare a 600+ page document to a 300+ page technical document in 2 work days. The health insurance sucks too. Things that used to be covered are no longer covered such as basic labs. The insurance carrier is always denying services such as an MRI.
