Pros

In my group the environment is pretty laid-back; there is no strict time around when you have to come in and when to leave as long as the job is done. The need to work overtime arises fairly rarely. I work in the project environment and there is always an opportunity for the people who want to get ahead to get on a project that would help them advance.

Cons

Sometimes I feel like communication suffers. There is not much cohesiveness among peers and many people come in the morning to only get out in the end of the day; not much socializing going on.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
