Pros

If you love chasing work and burning the candle at both ends, this is a great place to learn on the fly.

Cons

If you were looking for a job that would support one or two customers, think again. You will be required to teach classes, travel on-site with multiple different customers, and constantly be on the prowl for more work.

This is all on top of constant training (which is cool, but do it all on your own time). The company has moved away from the traditional professional services concept and more towards an "everyone is selling" posture (think classes).

It's thrilling if you are young or don't have a family. It's awful if you do have a family and are trying to maintain some semblance of a work-life balance.

Advice to Management

Stop relying on Copilot for all your answers. It's a robot.
