Pros

Great group of people to work with. Big name company on your resume. ITs a good place to start but you will not want to stay.

Cons

Promotions are hard to come by. you will have to train your manager at some point which is awkward. Again its a good place to get experiance and get out.

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.
