Pros

The overall demands of the job are fairly limited to 9-5 workday and rarely is work outside that required on a daily basis.

Cons

The level of pay compared to the amount of work put in is slightly lacking. I feel that they could do a better job of retaining employees with better pay.

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.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
