Pros

The vacation and sick time is generous. However you are allowed to use your entire allotment as of Jan 1. If you use time for maternity leave, you will owe if you leave before the end of the year. Not noted anywhere how time is accrued.

Cons

The work environment is poor. If you are a hard worker you will be overloaded with work and punished if you fail to deliver. Overtime is expected with minimal merit increases and worthless bonuses. Coworkers use one another as scapegoats when things go wrong. The turnover is astronomical. It is clear management doesn't care to retain its employees. No work life balance.

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.
