Pros

Its a 9-5. Youll work slightly less than 40 hours per week. Overall jobs are cool.

Cons

Big, bureaucratic, and siloed. NG is a wait your turn workplace that regularly even high performing workers under 3% end of year raises.

Pros

Most of the employees are amazing to work with. Almost all the leads are incredibly knowledgeable and resourceful.

Cons

Management is absolutely terrible. Many managers are selected solely on how much time they spend with upper management and leadership. Many times managers don't have any idea what their staff is doing.
