Pros

The only one I can think of is the ability to work from home

Cons

Only care about stockholders. Do not care about making employees feel valuable. Upper Management is never in the know. Senior Management only care about themselves. The people that do the most work are treated the worst (low men on the totem pole). Layoffs frequently, never sure if you will be next.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
