Pros

My fellow coworkers and manager were great.

Cons

After a year and a half of service to this company with nothing but positive reviews given to me, I was fired without warning, day of, in the middle of the work week. I was given a three minute meeting with a faceless HR representative I’ve never met with little explanation behind the decision other than cost cutting measures. My manager was not even notified that I was being let go. Do NOT work for this company. They act like they are an industry leader in employee satisfaction but they will dump you the second you are not raking in record profits for them. Upper management is full of cutthroat scumbags that only view you as a digit in the system and only care about profit margins. On top of all of this, I later found out my wage when hired was significantly less than those around me with the same level of education and qualifications. This is a shady untrustworthy company and I would not recommend it to anybody.

Pros

Lots of work so usually busy

Cons

Some elements of management employ a really toxic leadership style, obsession with billable hours, no time allowance or recognition for essential professional tasks like mentorship, coaching, and employee welfare, no time given to activities contributing to professional institution. High turnover of staff.
