Very good learning but no work life balance

Pros

Good learning, broad range of opportunities to work across different functions, best in breed of data, professional services, tech, apps

Cons

Nil work life balance, work easily covers 80 plus hours a week, recognition depends on pleasing seniors, the route to which is - work till you drop, there is just no upper limit for workload

Pros

For the most part I enjoy working here. There are excellent medical benefits. There's a medical office on-site, gym on site, pretty decent cafeteria. (All at QRTP locations). Great people for the most part, career development is encouraged. Work from home flexibility.

Cons

-Tiny, open cubes. We are squashed in there like sardines. There's absolutely no privacy whatsoever. If you need to take a personal call you might as well go down to the parking deck and sit in your car. -Hard work only pays off if you know the right people in upper management. If you work hard but the senior directors and execs don't know who you are, don't expect a promotion or any appreciation/recognition. -Annual performance rating system is seriously flawed: the rating scale is 1-5 (1 being lowest, 5 being absolutely stellar, perfect performance) and only a certain number of employees are 'allowed' to get 4s and 5s within the larger department as a whole. Again, if upper management doesn't know who you are, you won't get above a 3 even if you go above and beyond. Earning a 4 = promotion. -Certain departments get 'extras' like paid lunches & dinners and opportunities for team building off-site during work hours because there is such high turnover in those groups. Other groups do not get this benefit or the budget for it. -At least in GBO/CSMG, upper management is kind of a 'boys club' and if you're not in, don't expect any perks.

Horrible place to work

Pros

I guess there's a lot of free doughnuts?

Cons

Drastically under pay employees, no room for growth, very high turnover, the work is extremely boring and repetitive.
