Pros

The pay is very good

Cons

You don't really know where you'll be sent until it happens. Most of the time is the middle of nowhere.

Pros

Pay Understandable vacation time structure Training reimbursement if applicable Yearly Vacation retreat (with mandatory seminars) Decent bonus at end of year, that does decrease on a year by year basis in practice. Lower management is approachable

Cons

Treating workers like they are disposable. Actively discouraging discussing salaries during orientation, a red flag. Hostility without any cause, almost profiling new workers and assuming they don't care about the work they put in. There's an assumption that an average worker will only stay 2 years before burning out due to mandatory overtime, lack of flexibility with Project Managers or just generally disrespectful relocation assistance correspondence. A lot of the workers are hired right out of college, so they may not know how to set boundaries or deal with unreasonable working hours. The remote work discussion is dishonest, just match what employers on site do instead of requiring 5 days on site.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits starting out. Not highly competitive but competitive enough. Annual trip out of state (for most). You are the senior on the team in no time because of how quickly people leave or are relocated.

Cons

This company is behind the times, not just in technology but also in business practices. The higher-ups seem out of touch with company culture and issues. There's a huge lack of transparency about salary, performance feedback, policy changes etc. PMs are chosen based on favoritism and the strength of their backbone, not skill. Performance reviews for them make no difference. Everyone but the partners believes we can work effectively remotely. Despite this, a directive was sent down that every single Fast employee should work at minimum four days in the office, even if our clients are fully remote or working fewer days. It used to be "we match our clients" but now it's "we exceed" and other vague reasoning. At one site, Fast is paying rent for a large building that houses Fasties (and the occasional client staff who has issues working remote that day). Such an odd place. This is a means to an end (the end is another job).
