Pros

Depending on department flexibility in the workplace can be excellent. Depending on department micromanagement is not a problem. Work can be fast paced and exciting. Opportunities to learn new technologies as they appear within industry is available. Support base from the United States - if utilised correctly - can be a huge benefit

Cons

Workload is abhorent. Lack of understanding at coalface at directorship level. Client is always right - even when evidence demonstrates otherwise Expansion of business coming in has NOT be anticipated and actioned on by supporting departments - leading to failures Directorship level not listening to staff and staff are leaving due to this.

Where Being an American Man Still Counts Most

Pros

There are some genuinely nice, very capable people doing interesting work. John, Dale, and Rick are particularly approachable, when you do manage to get the opportunity to speak with them.

Cons

They like to present themselves as a global company, yet remain thoroughly U.S.-centric. One does wonder why they bother maintaining offices elsewhere. There’s also a rather entrenched issue with sexism: unless you’re a man, you’ll find yourself having to fight tooth and nail simply to be included in discussions that are fundamental to your role.
