Pros

Team can at times have a good culture. Many learning opportunities available.

Cons

Excessive micro management. Poorly executed strategy by top level management who cannot reflect on their own failures and so take it out on staff. Excessive work loads. Lots of fake deadlines communicated to the business. You are made to feel like the world is ending over minor pieces of work that arent that time sensitive.

Pros

-Hybrid work option and free parking.

Cons

As a contractor, the expectations were extremely high while the benefits, recognition, and job security were significantly lower compared to full-time employees. Contractors were often expected to handle multiple responsibilities due to constant pressure from upper management to reduce headcount, creating a stressful and draining work environment. Despite proving your value through consistent performance over years, contractors still seemed overlooked for growth opportunities. In some cases, employees with only a few months of tenure were promoted into full-time roles, while experienced contractors were passed over. There was also a noticeable amount of workplace politics, and at times the culture did not feel fully inclusive or supportive. Compensation was decent, but overall work-life balance, contractor treatment, and career progression opportunities need major improvement
