Pros

There are some amazing people that work there especially in the observational and statistical analysis groups.

Cons

Unfortunately, there are many people working there that are just 'floating by' and are not accountable for their work. It is hard to get people to do their job. Senior management was atrocious in some departments without a clue as to what they were doing. No promotion opportunities but management would continuously over-promise and under deliver.

Annual salary increase this year isn't until September which is odd.

Pros

Great team up to director level. Good place to start career, however not many open positions in US

Cons

Contracts are often unclear not including all needed services, leading to financial overburn. The company relies on multiple tracking systems, creating inefficiencies and frustrations for employees, and prioritizes hiring in low-cost regions, which are known for high employee turnover.
