Pros

Work from home if you discuss this in the interview stages.

Cons

Toxic workplace, they glamorise overworking employees with 0 reward. Managers will be sending you work at 11PM-12AM. Extremely high turnover as managers/consultants don’t know the basics of how to treat or speak to people well. Poor pay for the amount of work you’re expected to take on. Poor training. No chance of career progression. Team lacks any structure. Terrible work place culture, definitely not ‘people first’.
