Pros

Only positive is some nice coworkers

Cons

No feedback about job performance. They set you up for failure before you even begin with no support from upper management for what you need to get the job done. Position not as portrayed in interviews, management changed, job description changed, salary changed shortly after starting. Work not recognized. Senior management takes credit for the everyone's work internally and to client. Any effort to escalate issues or request support to get what need to do the job ends in direct retaliation from the upper management member not doing theirs. This feedback is consistent among all PMs and people in other departments as well. Advice to anyone looking at this company - don't. They misrepresent the job and company in interviews and will sabotage your career.

Pros

- Fun co-workers - Casual Dress

Cons

- 60 + hour weeks - 1/3 of team is incompetent - If you do great work, you will be expected to do work for the incompetent people - Management Flip-Flops decisions on a weekly to daily basis - Management is too scared to stand up to incompetent people - Team is in a constant state of flux, if a major disaster were to ever happen, the team would fall apart - Management never sets goals for the future, but would rather always take the "band aid" approach instead of the preventive approach - New technologies, techniques and/or ideas are never accepted - Weekend work is always expected, and managers never say "Thank You" - Removal of all incentives that were given previously (Food, complements, and bonuses) To make a long story short, this place is like a sweat shop. While this might be great for money making short term, a company structure like this cannot function long term.
