Pros

Not the pay. Not the work. Some people. Probably 20% of the people would make this list as a Pro. Not a good percentage in my book. Worklife balance, oh wait, that if for people who really don't work and get Fridays as a free day. FOF, is not allowed by all.

Cons

Pay oh and title. Beware of the bait ans switch,they interview you for a lead or something higher, then when you start they give you another title and say titles don't mean anything here. Last year they demoted probably oer 80% of the employees, giving lower titles than the bait and switch title. Then, no one gets raises because they now have a structure and range and sinec we demoted you, you are now paid too much for the role we gave you. Contractors are holding this company hostage but they don't produce, lack integrity and the skillset to perform daily tasks. Oh an the nepitism..... Let's hire a new guy because he's a friend of the xxxxx and that person can't even spell IT..... Sits in meetings and adds NO value what so ever.
