Pros

Ability to purchase extra vacation time however, just means the work has to get done in even less time. Some flexibility in schedule.

Cons

-Constantly being asked to do more work with no extra compensation or additional resources -Management does not like questions and is unwilling to risk internal political capital to make the proper decisions ("do the right thing") or think outside the box -Bonuses are actually "retention awards" which means there is a 3 year payback clause. Not a "bonus" at all -Little to no collaboration. It's all about management covering their own behinds -Interal compliance standards provide more work for associates and little client value and only serve to protect the company from litigation -Management implements decisions first then notifies later and for little regard for those that the decisions affect. For example - I had a peer that was working as non-exempt and earning overtime. Management decided to switch this individual to exempt and told the individual after the fact AND did not adjust salary at all to take into consideration lack of overtime pay. So wrong on so many levels.

Pros

Paycheck is great, people to work with are generally very intelligent, positive and professional. Many positions are work from home or at least hybrid. Continuous learning is encouraged. Since the company is technically British, it is very inclusive and has several networks to ensure inclusion (although some such as the menopause support group are UK based which isn't surprising as the US doesn't typically care about such things though they should).

Cons

The workload is often insane to put it mildly. You are expected to sort of "do everything". When you are encouraged to speak up if you have too much work, they pretty much tell you "well you just have to figure out how to get it done because we have to give you more work". There is blatant favoritism. Those who are liked are praised for giving detailed answers on calls and granted a month off of PTO while those not as well liked get grilled when they ask for one day off and are told "not to overthink" when they try to provide detailed answers.
