Pros
If you are lucky, you may get to work on some really strategic and transformative programs - very fulfilling if you are looking for that. Pay can be off the charts if you were hired at a time when the position was urgent and there was no one else in the pipeline. But beware - this also means you will be the first one on the chopping block.
Cons
Everything about this organization is an issue. Starting with service agreements that are border-line illegal, an ignorant finance team that does incorrect tax deductions on a regular basis putting individual employees in jeopardy with IRS, a culture of public humiliation and an employee workforce that’s majority sub-par skills. People here work hard - not because they love to, but because estimates are always aggressive and everyone is hired into roles way beyond their capability. To survive, you learn to lie. And then the lies become a way of life - resulting in missed commitments both internally and to clients. All of this stems from just one place - the egotistical and whimsical values of the company’s owner (the CTO). He is deranged and believes he is “god” and owns his employees. He believes he has the highest ethics and sense of fairness. He believes he is the most empathetic human in the world - all of this is far from true. But unfortunately he genuinely believes he is the best - he toys around with people’s lives not out of malice, but because that’s all he knows to be right.
