Pros
You can learn integrations related to generative AI with Azure OpenAI Service, as well as prompt engineering, RAG (i.e., RIG, RAG), and the integration of AI agents. Therefore, I think it’s excellent for those seeking a career in generative AI. However, since it is project-based, outcomes can also depend on luck.
Cons
I joined the company during a period when they were rapidly expanding their staff due to the popularity of generative AI technology. The compensation was lower than I had been told because I ended up working less overtime than expected. Moreover, regarding bonuses, it appears that due to poor global performance, the portion linked to the company’s overall results was zero. As for individual performance, since I hadn’t achieved anything notable since joining, I only received a prorated bonus based on the number of months I had been with the company instead of the full amount—resulting in a lower payout than anticipated. Additionally, because the work is project-based, evaluations for promotions are heavily influenced by project team members. Factors such as project difficulty and the fit between one’s skill set and the project are also likely to have a significant impact.
