Pros

Work-life balance is good, the people I worked with in my immediate workplace were nice and helpful, good experience (to a degree), they will cover some business expenses depending on your role.

Cons

Compensation is on the very low-end of the industry for the size of the company. There are no perks, they barely cover the cost of food when you travel, lots of stupid policies (although I expect this is the case at many companies), and your upward mobility can be severely limited based on the division you're in. Biggest issue is that bonuses are used in place of reasonable base-pay raises, but bonuses are set by what level employee you are, not your individual performance. I'm in a smaller division though, so maybe my experience is localized

Pros

There were a lot of career advancement opportunities. I managed to make use of them for quite a while and enjoyed it mostly.

Cons

Towards the end of my time there, myself and a number of coworkers started to get less and less work to do. We started to feel like we were just filling seats. We would offer to help other coworkers who had too much work and were told we couldn't help. Things became very different, very quickly, and very cliquey.

Pros

Alright pay and alright hours

Cons

The weirdest work environment ever. It's so quiet all you here are key strokes and mouses clicking. You will actually get into trouble for talking. Def a big brother feeling. Awful employee morale. I felt like I was in the hunger games watching people drop like flies. Very high turn over rate. Very unfriendly work environment.
