Pros

The culture is okay. Collegues are okay.

Cons

Working onsite is part of the scorecard, but I honestly don't see why. If employees are able to deliver quality work and meet deadlines, there shouldn't be a need to require office attendance. I understand that management wants teams to connect in person, but that alone doesn't seem like a strong enough reason to make onsite work mandatory. The office itself is fine, but the location isn't very commuter-friendly, which can make going onsite more challenging than necessary. There's also a noticeable amount of office politics and favoritism. Lastly, the company does not offer retirement benefits, which may be a downside for employees looking for long-term financial security.
