Pros

Really smart co-workers, very positive culture, great work-life balance, paid overtime, lots of random perks. The people you are surrounded with are highly intelligent and passionate and generally very upbeat about their jobs. This makes a huge difference day in and day out, because if you work in a negative place (as I have in the past), it can get you down. Positive, happy workplaces like this make it easy to get through the week.

Cons

Like any big organization, there are a lot of procedures that limit flexibility. There are a lot of little random policies that are quite silly and unproductive. There are no cups for water for example, you have to own your own mug or something. This can get pretty embarrassing when a client or vendor comes by, and you have to go buy them a water from the vending machine, because there are actually no cups.

Pros

Hi visibility projects. Rewarding experiences Competitive Pay

Cons

Sub-bar Project Management team. Condescending at times. Entitled. Sense of superiority. Confusing Hierarchical Structure and chain of reporting. Two managers. Administrative Organizational Unit Manager and a project manager. You report to both. Not flexible at the implementation of latest and most robust design software. Extremely cautious about the implementation of AI, sacrificing productivity and cutting edge competitiveness. Extreme focus on employees training on the companies policies and procedures, but not on the technical development of employees. Do not internally promote, rather they hire from outside for vacant higher positions. Remote workers are considered second class citizens. Not equal to those who work from the office, despite their credentials and pedigrees.
