Pros

It is for sure a solid step at the beginning of your professional career, however, after a few years of work it is hard to grow if you are not interested in management. Solid point of the company are: - work&life balance - social benefits - people (not all of course...)

Cons

- tons of spam received each day - over managed, flooded by Powerpoint and Excel - no good career path proposals for the technical stuff

Pros

Decent starting salary, good benefits, generous PTO

Cons

1% raises forever. Last promotion I got to Principal had no raise but a bump in bonus percentage. Now they are giving kids 8-12% raises and they have less than 5 yrs. Once you hit about 5 yrs you will get the 1% a yr and be pigeon holed into a specific job. Then good luck trying to change.
