Pros

The company prides itself on ethics and for the most part as a corporate entity. Overall it satisfies this claim.

Cons

Sectors are very different, No uniformity across those sectors and the ES sector is a horrific place to work and would never recommend it to anyone.

Pros

Laid-back workplace Good job security (notwithstanding layoffs in California)

Cons

No opportunity for growth. Annual raises are less than inflation and promotions are unlikely, regardless of effort put in. Benefits are garbage. Low-deductible plan costs too much to make financial sense, and the medium deductible plan is like not having insurance at all for a significant part of the year. Even after going through the deductible, it's hard to get insurance to cover anything. Full Return to Office where your coworkers get you sick + No sick leave (must use PTO) + Insurance that won't pay for your doctor visits and medication when you're sick. Quite the combination. Lead on my current project is not a software engineer, and it shows. Most of the work I did last year was fixing his very avoidable mistakes. Vesting period for employer contributions to 401(k) is 3 years, with no partial vesting. So unless you get lucky with a position that will keep you happy for three years, you get nothing.
