Pros

Projects - good variety, tight deadlines but that's the reality of the industry. Lots of opportunities to learn. Good valuable feedback... Sometimes harsh but this is expected People - real friendly people from all offices. Peers within and outside of the design team are welcoming. One design lead is especially caring and goes out of her way to make sure her team delivers good work and that everyone is well taken care of. Good person to look to when CD is absent or busy Social - lots of team outings, games, drinks nights. Really embrace 'work hard play hard' idea Food - you will never go hungry or thirsty here

Cons

Working hours - 9 a.m. to 6 p.m for FT designers.. No 'summer hours.'.. Politics - occasionally project manager oversteps and rants about CD and managers when they are away... Unhealthy and creates too office drama, affects others and creates toxic environment On-boarding - hard to know how company works and learn way around teams... Start buddy system for new employees?

Pros

Great place to be early in your career, with good responsibility and fun coworkers your age. Use as a learning period then start looking for better opportunities.

Cons

Slower, less engaging work (could be a pro though); management cultivates an odd greeklife-eqsue social environment that can limit opportunities for people who don't buy in; pay well below industry standard and minimal benefits
