Pros

Good training and experience for fresh graduates and lots of hands-on work which will help to build your CV.

Cons

Poor support from management on overtime tasks Extremely poor communication from upper management Poor work-life balance Mediocre salary compared to competitors Often issues with upper management telling you to do conflicting things, then getting angry at the employee rather than discussing the conflict with the other management staff. Regularly cutting corners and under-delivering on projects, then making excuses (often with the juniors taking the blame despite the PM being the one responsible for planning the project). Poorly negotiated contracts by management meaning projects need to be delivered in an unrealistic timeframe in less hours than are actually needed. The result is unclean data and regular service interruptions/issues that no one has time to deal with.

Pros

The office staff cares about employees, the staff is very caring about eachother, lots of after-work activities, good and honest work, managers are attentive to needs, and there are plenty of opportunities to move up the ladder.

Cons

Sometimes I'd rather be at work than at home.

Pros

Work from home freedom Boss is very communicative

Cons

They rely on ghost writing too much instead of having the inspectors write their own reports. They hire very very poor subcontractors to do inspections that give very bad info and take poor photos. No breaks from one report to the other. The report review also needs help... lots of errors in prior reports. Constantly overloaded fixing everyone's mistakes. Lazy coworkers. Lots of late late nights working.
