Pros

Work was fun with colleagues. Enjoyed the clientele

Cons

Higher ups were very biased and unhelpful when making complaints about management. HR and division management often told you that they would take care of it but would not follow up according to policy. Was constantly told that advancement was possible but would make excuses or write up anyone trying to do so.

Pros

Primarily remote work. Decent PTO after the 4th year.

Cons

Limited staffing and limiting overtime opportunities until the bitter end of potentially missing deadlines, which you are guilted into working. 2% "raise" every January and ZERO merit raises. Gutted profit sharing and profitability bonuses over time. Most recent bonus, which is tied to net profit after dividends, was given a result when the scale was never published. All previous bonuses had a floor-to-ceiling profit scale that showed the targets months in advance of the end of the bonus period.
