Pros

you get to work on big projects...

Cons

you don't get paid as if you were working on a big project. Everyone is overworking and saying the word "burnout" will get you fired. Recent layoffs and restructuring were conducted in the least humane way possible. No positive culture. Women's faces are used in presentations they didn't work on to show diversity to clients. Insecure, unknowledgeable, and inexperienced leadership. Money is the only KPI the company cares about
