Pros

Interesting projects to work on. Benefits are okay.

Cons

Company brags about having a work life balance but this is far from the truth. High employee utilization goals 90-95%, but PTO and mandatory holidays count against utilization. Employees are forced to work 42-45 hours a week just to keep up with utilization which affects bonuses and end of the year raises. No work life balance. Harsh deadlines and employee burnouts are very common. Company is not employee focused but client (money) focused. CEO and upper management flies around on a private jet to talk to employees about their utilization rates which is terrible.
