Pros

Flexibility, and sometimes you might get to briefly work on interesting projects. Some of the benefits are good. Most of the coworkers below management are good people and not egotistical jerks.

Cons

Base pay is pathetic, and the leadership team keeps shrugging and refusing to give market adjustments. However, it's funny to see them keep promoting themselves through re-orgs; they never get left behind. None of this ever trickles down to the people who actually do the work. Promotions were on hold for a year and still are few and far between. This company does not care at all about paying employees a fair wage.

Just remember this advice the senior leadership team gave when asked why we are not getting adjustments in a meeting to address the out-of-control attrition crisis: "Good workers don't deserve raises. Everyone should always be doing a good job, which means you are only average." Pathetic.

Advice to Management

Stop being cheap and pay your workers. Clean house on this incompetent leadership team that exemplifies the Peter Principle: they are promoted to the levels of their incompetence.
