Pros
I have a shrinking number of very intelligent and kind coworkers on my team, but they are the only bright spot here.
Cons
Benefits and wages are below industry standard. You accrue a meager amount of PTO, very few holidays, pay more for health insurance, and the promotion process keeps being made less and less appealing. You will not get a raise that keeps up with inflation, you will not get the kind of projects you ask for to round out your skills, you will not get leadership that helps you grow or feel satisfied in your work. What you will get is staff-aug work on whatever project they can manage to sell anymore. It's probably going to be GenAI-related, whether it makes sense or not. "People-first" and "fiercely-human" are for marketing only, as they had their first serious layoffs in 2023 and are definitely still doing them right now in 2024 but just not to the amount that's legally required to be reported. Their relationship with their workforce didn't survive a single change in interest rates. They're very much culling everyone who hasn't met sales targets or isn't a true-believer. They're also pushing RTO with embarrassingly-weak justifications. In a more merciful job market they'd be bleeding a lot more talent than they already are.
