- Pay is very low and way under industry/competitor average
- Little advancement opportunities - even going to the senior level doesn't make much of a difference as you essentially do the same exact thing until you manage employees
- Workload is always insanely overwhelming, and even when you bring it up to management nothing is done to help besides them telling you to "push through". Leads to client dissatisfaction because no one can handle all of the deadlines well due to their sheer amount of work.
- Work isn't very interesting and can be monotonous; not an exciting place to work and everyone seems unhappy and miserable
- If you work on one of the bigger clients, it can be especially stressful. The partners always promise too much to please the client at the expense of the employees' mental health and contribute to burnout that never ends. The clients themselves aren't pleasant to work with and can be very entitled and demanding.
- No work-life balance as you're always working overtime and being piled on.
I'd honestly not recommend working here at all. It isn't worth the stress at all as it's uninspiring, and you get paid pennies compared to other firms. You're very replaceable, and I saw that through the constant hiring of about 10 new people at a time to replace the people that leave every few weeks. It's rare for someone to work there past a couple of years, and even if they stay it's likely just because of job security. Not kidding - the turnover is the most insane I've ever seen. This job is made to seem fun and exciting when you interview, but it really isn't at all and is just a marketing ploy to get more bodies to push the heavy workload.
