Pros

Work from home. Medicover. Flexible.

Cons

Low starting salary. Yearly pay raise around 2-4% which is extremely disappointing. Close to zero chance of getting promoted in your own position. Non-existing reward system. Everyone I know is severely unmotivated and looking for another job as an escape. Disorganization at every level. Applications that used on daily basis are horribly optimized and often unavailable, hence the work delay. Incompetent backup system. Even if you put an actual effort in your job it doesn't matter, so eventually you will not put any effort in your job. People also leave because of the heavy workload resulting much more heavy workload because of their absence, BUT there is no hiring to replace them. Surveys are completely ignored even if they are really bad (and they are really bad). You will stuck doing the same thing for years if you don't push yourself really hard.

Pros

Great benefits. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They do more than just pay lip service to work life balance

Cons

Like any job, the manager is the one that can make or break the position

Pros

Great benefits (PTO, healthcare, etc.) for FTEs

Cons

Everything else - Carousel of management changes - Vague and ever-changing role/job descriptions and associated metrics - The constant feeling that we're all about to be laid off but must "prove" our value in the meantime
