Great Place To Work

Pros

There's a good feeling of empowerment within the organization - from the top down they give you the rope to learn and grow, and the support needed if you fail. They encourage teamwork. They pay well. They have a good 401k match - they have a pension plan available for certain higher level employees.

Cons

40% of the people do 80% of the work. These 40% of the workforce are overworked and overwhelmed and have little time to train and empower others to grow. This is a recipe for short term success but makes it difficult in the long term

Pros

Lots of cool and interesting things to learn if given time. Work from home flexibility.

Cons

Massive workloads with an expectation to put in 50 to 60+ hours per week. Huge workloads lead to high stress which leads to rude behavior and makes for a hostile work environment. No time to train once you have clients assigned to you as you are expected to bill client hours the majority of your work day. Upper management is hyper-focused on billing client hours instead of doing quality work. Placing totally inexperienced people into management or lead positions, which only increased the overall lack of support and increased strain on the overall workload. Overloaded managers who constantly cancel their one on ones as they simply don't have the bandwidth to be managers.

Pros

Flexible work hours and the ability to work from home.

Cons

Management is non-existent and favoritism is rampant. Regardless of your years of employment or knowledge of the industry you are treated like a child. Workflow processes are inane and counter productive. Benefits that have been in place for years are discarded as if they never existed. They are currently going through a "merger" and are treating current employees as discardable. They are not loyal to their employees regardless of years of service and do not deserve their employees loyalty in return. Do yourself a big favor and look past the manufactured PR surface.
