Pros

Decent starter job for new grads. Challenging work.

Cons

The AWS and work from home policy that they love to advertise are merit based; you need to “earn” them and it seems like the requirements are arbitrary and depend on who your lead/ supervisor is. If you don’t “earn” these benefits by your 3 month performance evaluation you will most likely never get them. Please take this into consideration before applying here. Even if you do get the AWS, understand you may go months without actually having that Friday off due to the work load. This company has a very toxic work culture where you are “encouraged” to dedicate your personal/free time towards working. You can expect to work 11+ hour days and weekends very regularly, especially towards the end of the month. They expect 100% perfect quality on unrealistic deadlines. You can also expect disrespectful management and a very “clique-y” atmosphere. This company is very much a good ole boys club. Please consider the kind of lifestyle that you want to lead because working here will likely take up more time out of your life than you’d expect.

Pros

I enjoyed working with my colleagues - they brought a lot of experience and were wonderful to be around. No complaints about pay or benefits, have yet to pay out of pocket for routine eye, dental, or health exams. Some of the travel was cool.

Cons

PMs underbid projects like crazy. We'll have a good proposal drafted up and PM will say "cut 20%" with zero insight into the details and possible repercussions. Of course they disappear once the project is underway and the engineers have to answer for why the projects are out of money. OT is technically available, but since projects are on thin budgets from the start, there's never any available budget to use it. Leadership wants you 95% billable which makes everything cutthroat. People constantly fight over hours to make sure leadership doesn't come around asking why they have more than an hour of OH on their timesheet. I’ve had coworkers beg me for work. After spending a few days getting them hours, they were often no longer available, because they were trying to work on other projects as well. And although we were all fairly knowledgeable, we didn't have any internal standards, so we basically resorted to practices learned from previous jobs, which made for disjointed submittals.
