Pros

Flexible WFH policy and line managers are very accessible.

Cons

Outdated maze-like system of disjointed platforms and messaging mediums used to manage documentation, metadata and customer data. An obstacle to PMs, BDMs and Customer's alike. No proprietary tools or structures to manage scheduling, actuation and milestone execution. No clearly delineated quality management (QMS) roles, responsibilities or ownership. Workforce inflation and reduction is cyclical and unfortunately predictable (1-2 years is the common retention rate)

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)
