Pros

The pay is good starting but your raise will be less than 1%.

Cons

- Horrible management - Work culture that doesn’t foster growth - Your relocation does not cover relocation. - Projects here have no value to your career. -Projects take years to be put on -No mentorship you’re on your own. - Your salary will have money taken from it for “unpaid holidays” - Little PTO - No parking (get ready to take the bus everyday) - Deceptive HR - Turn over rate of 60% do I need to say more?
