      Pros

      The people I work with are top notch and very good at what they do. They are also some of the kindest people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. When I'm in the office or in the field doing work my days are usually filled with laughter and smiles as we all crack jokes with each other. Decent amount of PTO with people who don't give you crap for taking PTO. Practically everyone in management is kind, understanding, patient, and over worked.

      Cons

      very little job growth opportunities, little raises despite increased amount of responsibility, need more on the job training.

      Pros

      Flexible hours (mostly), complex projects, great staff on project teams.

      Cons

      No clear path for development, no leadership or vision, no support for the 2018 workforce, no money for the necessary tools or training, no sense of belonging, overall negative and stifling culture and atmosphere.

      Pros

      Good people to work with, competitive benefit package considering most employers are going to high-deductible plans with HSA or FSA. Fascinating projects that are complicated and difficult. We don't do the cookie-cutter type of projects. There are some good line managers and VPs who stand up for their people.

      Cons

      My group is under-staffed, the work load is heavy and there is no end in sight. Some positions have gone unfilled for 7 months. The loyalty of the functional personnel is being tested. For exempt employees, there is no comp time or other recognition of hours worked over 40 a week and that gets exploited regularly. Line managers have little opportunity to totally unplug on weekends or vacation. Procurement of some of the simplest things involves bureaucracy and red tape. There is talk of work-life balance, but it has not been observed by this employee. There isn't much time for learning or teaching on the job. Be ready to hit the ground running.
