Pros

Interesting projects with meaningful impacts. There are pockets within the organisation that are collaborative and nice to work with.

Cons

Highly political organisation. Generally not supportive or collaborative. You need to watch your back constantly. People guard their projects and won't give up control. You have to fight to be let on projects.

Pros

great supervisor, lots of professional development opportunities

Cons

insane workload and expect you to be available for work 24/7. some teams are drowning and others have no resourcing. layoffs happen completely randomly and they lay off people who are 100 percent billable. profit share is bs and you get nothing as a junior member
