Pros

Maybe if you enjoy remote work with a very relatively laid back environment, this could be a good place for you

Cons

Little to no career growth. Much of the technical work is being offshored which is disgusting as the company tries to maximize profits by lowering the quality of the work. Very disgusting leadership. First they say how well the company is doing and how every BU is amazing and then proceed to lay off a subset only to replace it with offshore labor or not at all meanwhile higher up execs continue to get promoted and new consultants are put into partner roles. The tech is old and out dated and will continue to do so as they push for subpar offshore engineers and the career growth is non-existent and management is not transparent. Likewise, compensation for average employees is below market median.

Pros

Norstella has built a culture that genuinely prioritizes innovation, collaboration, and doing what’s best for the company and its people. There’s a strong sense that everyone is working toward the same goals, and leaders across the organization are aligned in driving meaningful impact. One of the best parts of working here is the team environment. I truly enjoy working with my direct team as well as peers across different functions. There’s a high level of mutual respect, and people are always willing to support each other and share ideas. It’s not just talk, there’s a real commitment to helping one another succeed. The leadership team fosters an environment where new ideas are encouraged, and employees are empowered to contribute. It creates a space where innovation can thrive, and you feel like your work actually matters.

Cons

Being remote has its difficulties, but overcomable
