Pros

A good team of designers and developers

Cons

Was hired on as a contract principle designer. During my interview process I was sold that there was plenty of growth and opportunity within the role to make vast adjustments across the experience, along with extensions and FT promise. After being hired I quickly noticed that my position became more of a junior level copy/paste/edit design situation almost overnight with communication dropping simultaneously. Worlds away from previous engagement opportunities that I had come so accustomed to seeing. Immediately felt like I was hired as a shoehorn until they found someone else, which was not communicated or anticipated. Two months later, after hiring a full time resource weeks prior, I am then notified 2 days before my contract was set to renew that I would not be extended. The project that I was promised to be a design lead within had barely started. Begs the question that if I wasn't the person that you wanted at the beginning, why hire me in the first place.
