Pros

It was a horrible experience all-around.

Cons

Ridiculous workload. Unsupportive management. huge amount of time spent either accounting for hours or forecasting hours. Underbid projects with inadequate hours for work completion. High turnover means rescuing studies with too many hours burned to complete work.

Pros

Allowed to wear jeans in the office unless an important visitor is expected

Cons

Very high workload, bad work/life balance, every time a next-to-impossible goal is achieved, they raise the bar and expectations even higher. Nothing is ever good enough.
