Pros

Breadth of skills - there is typically a team for everything a client could need. Above market salary.

Cons

Depth of skills - each team has a very limited number of capable individuals. Highly toxic culture: always on, drop everything and fight whatever fire is burning today. Mistakes will not be tolerated: made a mistake? That will dictate your performance rating, and people will remember it for a long time.

Pros

Good learning environment, the teams help support your development when you're new, and they take you under their wing to succeed in your role.

Cons

It is a grind, work-life balance can become nonexistent, and it can be draining.

Pros

Good Benefits - Get the week of the fourth of July and the week of Christmas off every year.

Cons

They say we are doing well but everyone is stagnant. No real opportunities to get promoted or raises. Gone through 3 layoffs. Management says that no one is leaving because they love working there but no one is leaving because the market is bad. That is the reason for a backlog of folks trying to move up.
