Pros

I've been here 6 years, and I love the benefits and many of the people I work with.

Cons

I have never been promoted,and I stopped getting raises around year 4, despite needing a mid-year raise to bring me up to industry "average." The larger the client you work on, the more toxic the team is. Might be great working on smaller clients, but don't get put on a jumbo client. You will be taken advantage of and worked to until you are completely burnt out, all while being asked why you can't handle a job better meant for 2, sometimes 3 people. Very stressful and very little work-life balance with very little reward for putting up with it, even when you're being told your work is excellent and people enjoy working with you.

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.
