Pros

They will allow you work from home and every few years you may get also get a promotion, but only if you threaten to quit first.

Cons

They claim that they are not getting resumes to fill open positions. We have a constant wall of work ahead of us and no relief in sight. Clients are upset because of the constant turnover and lack of client focus. How can we focus on clients when we have 20-30 of them to take care of at any given time and a group of 6 when we used to have 30? CEO says they are "listening" and will make improvements. However, we have all heard that before.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.
