Pros

Their products are OK and the company revenue continues to grow.

Cons

Managers do not know how to manage, they control people. Nobody cares about your development. When you need support from other colleagues on a project, it is highly possible that you will be pushed back. If you are the most recent hire of your team, you will be assigned tasks that other people don’t want to do or least important things are trivial for a long time. And you won’t get properly mentored. Work life balance is terrible. Low pay. High turnover rate. Please avoid this company if you care about your mental health and future development. Several people I know, including me, feel quite depressed and stressful working here.

Pros

Hires recent college grads Thrown immediately into large projects, so great experience Opportunity to grow for anyone that can stomach it

Cons

Expectation that you'll work minimum 50 hours a week Lack of transparency around salary and bonus structure High turnover, most people leave quickly Consistently more work for the department than people to do the work You will work a lot of hours in a high stress environment. Sales culture is to say yes to all clients and all budgets. It is not uncommon to work until midnight or later.
