Great people, long hours

Pros

The people at SI were excellent to work with. The company itself had a small business feel despite rapid growth. For example, there was an unofficial open door policy that included the CEO and senior management. It was also relatively easy to switch departments or try new project types.

Cons

Work-life balance was poor and staff went to extremes to meet deadlines. Most employees were issued laptops and continued working at night or over weekends.

Pros

- Great exposure to the field without being siloed - Strong personal relationships and work atmosphere - Never boring - Well-intentioned staff and management - Opportunities to participate in field work

Cons

- Junior and mid-level staff are over-worked and often have poor work-life balance - Growth and a few poor hiring decisions have put pressure on mid-level staff to make up for others' lack of billability and the lack of adequate financial and supervisory support - Reorganization has given less emphasis to strong mentor/supervisor relationships
