Pros

Decent pay right out of college. Very good at teaching and strengthening a self taught attitude. Interesting scope of work which can be very satisfying when complete. Good opportunity to create and nurture strong independent characteristics.

Cons

Due to recent changes the benefits have gone from good to bad. You are on the road 75 to 90% of the time. There is no real work life balance. You have the majority of responsibility on projects but the lowest paid. There is no real career progression just lateral moved which will require resets of career experience level. Management is not very cooperative and not very responsive. This can be good since you are sort of your own boss but not good since when their help is needed it's not there.

Pros

Flexible hours for work life balance if you have the right manager.

Cons

The merit review process is deeply flawed. If your manager is based outside the US, expect little to no meaningful raise, and HR provides no oversight or accountability to fix it. Speaking of HR, don’t count on them to resolve workplace issues; there are virtually no checks and balances in place. Gender diversity is a serious concern, with women making up less than 35% of the company and even fewer in leadership. Sexist comments go largely unaddressed. Decision-making at every level moves at a glacial pace, creating constant bottlenecks that make it hard to get anything done. Leadership frequently makes promises to employees that never materialize, which has taken a significant toll on morale and trust over time.
