Pros

Compensation is strong, both in terms of base salary and bonuses. At least a couple of years ago, pay was definitely above average compared to the market. From a purely financial perspective, this is one of the main reasons to join.

Cons

The level of micromanagement is extreme and can be very stressful. There is a very high employee turnover, and many people are placed on PIPs. I was fortunate not to be put on a PIP myself, but I saw many colleagues struggle, experience high stress levels, and eventually burn out due to the working conditions.

Pros

Totally remote and the hours that you work can be flexible. The other designers are very friendly and willing to help you out when solving problems. The company provides you with equipment to work with. They also forbid the use of AI in their presentations with is extremely respectable.

Cons

You are paid based on billable hours. Management is strict about how much time you spend on each project, but you also have to make sure to meet a quota of billable hours each week. It can be hard to find a balance and the time counting down while working is stressful.
