If you get unlucky with a project, It can get pretty bad.

Business Outlook

Pros

- HO depending on project and manager - Learning opportunities, If your project workload allows it - A lot of internal communities for a wide array of interests, professional and leisure, if you're into that

Cons

- Salary hikes are terrible, and management straight up lies about "market" to justify it, expect to be working for 20-40% less (than market average) in a couple of years unless you switch. - If you're assigned to a project, It's pretty much up to the customer how your day-to-day will be, This can result in less than professional working conditions, and burnout. Complaints result in promises, but ultimately no substantial change.
