Pros

Hybrid schedule — the flexibility to work from home was a major plus. Decent pay for the role and responsibilities. Friendly, supportive coworkers who made day-to-day work more enjoyable. Workload was manageable — not many high-pressure deadlines.

Cons

No work = no hours = no pay. Sent home without pay during slow periods. No 401(k) match — just company stock after three years, with little to no value. Sudden layoffs and unpaid “standby” time with no warning. Leadership seemed more focused on billable hours than employee well-being. Promises made during hiring were not followed through. Job security felt conditional, not guaranteed. If you call it a full-time position, it should come with full-time support. That means steady pay, real benefits, and job security. Anything less is misleading — and harmful. We need to hold companies accountable for how they treat their people. Everyone deserves transparency, respect, and fair compensation for their time and skills.
