Pros

the only good thing I can think of is flexibility, but since you have to do a million extra hours to tray finished your job, it´s not that good.

Cons

everything is the worst company I ever worked.

Pros

1. Flexibility: I have never had a set schedule; great for work-life balance. 2. Pay & Benefits: I think the benefits are good and I like my salary.

Cons

1. Multiple reorganizations: I've had 6 managers in 4 years. 2. Silos: I honestly do not know what other departments do all day. 3. Weird organizational structure: My manager, team, and I all work in different areas of the business so we can't connect/relate with each other. I "report" to the different projects PM's and my manager doesn't really understand what I do. 4. COVID19 hit the business really hard: lots of changes

Pros

You can learn a lot about the industry

Cons

The company constantly makes cuts that make it harder for you to do your job. You need to work overtime to finish your work but they won't give overtime. You basically have to work overtime without being paid and if you get caught you will be in trouble.
