Pros

Work life balance is great. Work is fairly easy

Cons

Pay is way under midpoint. Tech stack is very dated. Managerial staff have little desire to actually propel the company forward from a tech stand point (though they talk about it al). Most long term employees are stagnant and okay with just doing what they are supposed to. Not a good place for mentors or people who want to advance their skill set

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.
