Pros

The company has a good work life balance and both upper management and line management are very approachable and understanding of personal issues. There is opportunity for progression, which is based on skill acquisition rather than time with the company, so if you pull your socks up and work hard promotion can be fairly regular.

Cons

Despite the company's recent good performance over the past two financial years bonuses and merit increases are relatively poor until you reach the 3rd or 4th tier of your career progression ladder. This is to make the starting salary seem more appealing by bunching the grading midpoints together, but means poor increase until you get higher up in the company.

Pros

Coworkers are willing to help you and answer questions.

Cons

Abysmal pay for industry standards. Work will be piled on continuously. More and more studies. Forced to present impossible timelines. And then you have to speak to why these timelines were not met after the fact when it's outside of your control. Travel expectations thrown at you with a couple days notice. CEO micromanages the entire company. They track when you badge in and badge out of the building. You have to badge out to exit. Upper management throws you under the bus in front of sponsor despite agreeing with you in prep call and telling you they will have your back. People here work crazy long hours late into the evening and think it's normal.
