Pros

- Met a lot of really nice people working here

Cons

- Inappropriate management As soon as you dont have an ongoing assigment upper management basically wants to fire you. All in all a very unprofessional environment full of threats and harsh attitudes. I know of a lot of people working as developers, HR, sales and upper management that has been threatened by the founders and their lawyers. - Horrible work-/life balance The consultant managers gets a measly 3000 SEK a month to be the managers of the consultants. However, they must still work 100 % in their own assigments? When are you supposed to have the time to actually work with the staff?! This is especially problematic since one of the founders has a competition each month on which office has the lowest amount of logged internal hours. So the consultant managers are basically forced to work in their spare time. Oh wait you can perhaps get a free lunch if you scheduele all your meetings over your lunch break. -Career opportunities Aside from working very hard to become a consultant manager, there are very few career opportunities. If you are to be made a manger of sales, manager of recruitment or something else, there is a very very small pay increase and if you don't like it - find a different job.

Pros

Good benefits and nice offices.

Cons

As an employee you are simply an asset for the sales department to sell, and if you are picky about your next client or role you'll get thrown off the bus. Many employees are somewhat forced to work on assignments they don't prefer, with the promise they might get something more suitable in the future. Leadership speaks about exciting clients, but many are in public sector or other dull organizations that find it hard to hire good tech talent (for obvious reasons). Middle-management is awfully substandard (and rarely seen), as most of the money is spent on company marketing and the sales department.
