Pros

People. It's always the people who manage to get something positive fire places like this- clever, open, friendly and passionate, at least until the gross incompetence, nepotism, lack of prospects, poor pay, borderline paranoid micromanagement and a host of other toxic environment issues chew them up and spit them out. Can be a stepping stone for newcomers. Learn fast to work somewhere else, though. It can work as part-time to look for something better or accumulate time for unemployment benefits.

Cons

Do you know mass exploitation cattle farms? You know, those places who hoard cattle with no concern for the lives of the animals or the quality of the meat, only having the most heads and producing the most amount of subpar but sellable cuts? Well, that's Testronic. What we know in the industry as "Romanian/Indian Test Farms". They don't need to be on Romania or India, but the pattern is the same. A hub which "solves" everything by throwing large numbers of workers at it now without any concern for the future, and replacing them when there is no longer a work spike (which is often, because clients are not idiots and see the quality of the final work) or simply they are not as productive, 100% available or start wanting anything beyond minimal legal wage or conditions. And they know it. It's their business model, so don't bother raising concerns. It's not an issue that management is incompetent- which they are- as much as it is that they have decided to live with that incompetence and just give big numbers of cheap labour.

Pros

Easy job Top tier client

Cons

New Orleans office is a sweatshop. Gets to 80 degrees daily and has been that way for years. Hard to focus or even care about the work with such bad conditions. HR and management have avoided raises for years and the new system setup is shady and not transparent. Nightmare HR - understaffed and hardly reachable. Upper management had a lot of nepo. I saw a new old head come in, get promo’d to the top, and then promo’d every single person under him along the way. They just hire anyone off the street so competency can be pretty low. But there are some smart people just looking for intro gig.
