Pros

Lots of great people work here.

Management is generally friendly and responsive.

Cons

Low pay and tiny raises. Lack of promotion opportunities. Lack of projects means a large bench, and those on the bench don't have job security. Short-term projects and bouncing around makes it hard to become proficient in any one thing. HR is a chatbot.
