Pros

compensation is fair and the bonus structure is based on performance and how many hours you contribute outside of your targets.

Cons

workplace bullying: upper management will often use verbal criticism, humiliation, and belittling in front of others. no camaraderie: most members only look out for themselves and there is always unfriendly competition. work/life balance: it is expected to work around the clock in a production project with 10-12-hour shifts. low morale: due to long hours and competition, there is no team and or unity, and management covers it with gift card incentives and in-office "team building events". performance reviews: upper management does not put the effort into developing direct reports. there is a 1-5 rating scale but barely anyone gets a 5 even though they deserve it.

Pros

Good WLB Great Bosses Health insurance & benefits are awesome Very flexible workforce Easy to climb up in promotions

Cons

Pay is below standard (Although I feel you still get paid decently for the area) If you're put on a production project, be ready to feel stuck. Management is very lost on where they want to head into the future. I am worried this company won't last much longer (Former arthur anderson) Can feel clique-y at times amongst peers (but this is not a problem of the company specifically)
