Pros

Office has small company feel with the benefits of the corporation. Salaries are competitive with the inclusion of overtime pay. Hours are reasonable most of the time, but always subject to a few long weeks. A lot of independence and responsibility passed on to junior staff, making personal professional growth potential very high compared to other firms.

Cons

Many small projects, which means people tend to be given projects and run with them. No real 'team' mentality within departments due to each person having 2-3 projects on their own receiving little assistance/support from anyone else. While overtime is a great benefit, it's rarely available due to small project budgets lending itself to many 'volunteer' hours on nights and weekends.

Pros

Good salary and benefits. Signing bonus. Professional work environment. Flexible 40-hour work week. Nice office. Good IT support. Supportive co-workers.

Cons

Lack of billable work. Penny pinching over minor items. Lack of communication between staff and management. Lack of available training and skill development. Our small office seemed to be off grid in relation to the main offices. Our managers attempted to keep corporate status quo even in such a small office, ex. keeping larger unused window offices empty.
