Pros

Work is challenging and varied. Management in my area is very flexible with work/life balance and remote working opportunities. I feel like my time, opinions, and output are valued.

Cons

The corporate culture is very strong and may not be everyone's cup of tea. Decision-making based on employee feedback could be more transparent.

Pros

Awesome coworkers for young professionals. Paid licensing for a few months.

Cons

Micromanagement is out of control. Incompetent team leaders who are obsessed with power and metrics. Back to back calls, limited support, and nearly impossible effective communication between departments. Zero time to cultivate culture because you are taking calls every second of the day except for 30min/1hr lunch and two 15 minute breaks. You’re locked into your role for over a year (apprenticeship for around 60 days, then a year after promotion to associate) and your team leaders will not approve internal applications unless you are “eligible”.
