Pros

Great benefits package, 401K, personal life benefits and reimbursement programs, flexible hours, great cafe (QRTP-Plaza), on-site fitness center and medical center, brand recognition

Cons

Decentalized/matrix management structure - you have many bosses telling you what to do and demanding work. Long hours - employee utilization is over 100%, billable and non-billable departments - some work hard to make the money while others burn it up.

Pros

The layoffs were handled quietly and unexpectedly, even though there were some early signs. They didn’t share who else was affected, but it was clearly more than just me.

Cons

They’re doing layoffs in phases, and my position was part of the most recent round.
