Pros

Flexible hours. Highly technical. Supportive colleagues. Diversity of projects and content type. Great social committee.

Cons

Long hours. If you work your contracted 37.5 hours, this means you "do not have enough work to do". Expect to do 50-60 hours per week just to keep afloat; overtime is UNPAID. No acknowledgement from management when staff work excessive hours in order to maintain service levels to clients. Very poor work:life balance. If you are a workaholic, this will be the place for you. Management undermine staff in front of employees - this is very very bad management and unacceptable behaviour.

Pros

Fully work from home job

Cons

Work-life-balance (the way tasks availability works makes it so that you have to stay home most of the day to get hours) Pay (the pay is not competitive at all) Poor management (little to no communication and frequently overhiring, which adds to the lack of available work) Benefits (benefits are only available if you work a certain amount of hours per year, even if they do not have tasks available frequently) Vacation time (vacation time is awarded similarly to the way benefits work. Therefore your vacations are lessened by when task availability decreases) Lack of clarity (company stages meetings under the guise of transparency, but do not address worker concerns, up to and including concerns over lack of work) Mass layoffs (company does mass layoffs frequently, sending out termination emails to multiple employees at once periodically, which adds to general stress and uncertainty about job stability)
