Pros

Nothing that you cannot get somewhere else which is why people jump from this company to others.

Cons

The corporate political nonsense dominates more than anything else with toxic work life as a byproduct. They dangle promotions over your head & have you work unreasonable deadlines/stress then make you feel you have to cure cancer & devote your life just to grow in the slightest. Very depressing & company loyalty/seniority is not valued at all.

Pros

A good amount of remote monitoring, which depending on how you view can be a positive.

Cons

Changing systems and inconsistent standards are applied to people. There are many differing models that often muddy how you are supposed to do your job, especially when other staff members don't quite understand. How do you interface with the changing models? There tends to be a lot of blame and foisting of responsibilities. Sometimes you can become overburdened with a lot of work, where people do not respect your time and think that their tasks should take priority. It is possible to be contacted late at night with work to do and then be criticized the next day for not being able to keep up.
