Pros
Smart colleagues, nice office, decent PTO.
Cons
Don’t be fooled: you’re entirely on soft money here. You have to pull together a patchwork of project coverage for yourself, competing against your colleagues to get onto projects. And once on a project, the work tends to ebb and flow rather unpredictably so some weeks you’re slammed with work while others you have no idea what to put on your timesheet. “Bench time” is severely frowned upon so there’s no safety net for coverage gaps. People will use their PTO to make up for lacking project coverage. It’s totally insane.
