Pros
- Decent time off; 3 weeks for new employees plus the option to purchase an extra week - Will never run out of work to do
Cons
- Far below average compensation, with raises far below even inflation - Recurrent slashes to benefits - Terrible work/life balance - Constant stress and pressure to work harder and longer hours - No one uses their vacation because they'll be blamed for failing to meet deadlines - Always more work to do than what could possibly get done - Huge emphasis on arbitrary, meaningless deadlines that are often impossible to meet - Absolutely no concern for employees as human beings, or their mental or physical health - Refusal to offer promotions to even the most productive workers (I have been referred to as "indispensable" by my manager, and am still waiting for a promotion that was promised years ago) - Adversarial relationship between managers and subordinates; they are constantly trying to find reasons to punish and pay less - I honestly don't know what the managers do all day, there's no tangible benefit to their roles besides pressuring employees to work harder
