Pros

On site gym, flex work arrangements, PTO

Cons

This place will crush your soul. The training here is non existent, the work load is unmanageable because of the high turnover, the pay is pathetic for the job requirements, the upper management is a bunch of middle aged caucasian men who don't realize it's 2016, there's no job security, the bonuses are insulting... I could go on all day.

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.
