Pros

They do interesting work and projects.

Cons

Low pay Horrible management Bad work environment High turnover Poor training Odd working hours - everyone shows up late 10-11am and works until 8pm+ and just because you show up early, doesn’t mean you’re going home early. Will get calls on the weekends to “ask” if you can come in on the weekend to do work even if you’re out of town and withought any notice.

Pros

- The work is intellectually engaging and gave me many chances to grow technically. - I learned a lot from talented coworkers and appreciated being part of projects with real-world relevance. - There was also good exposure to translating technical work into clear, usable takeaways.

Cons

- The work can be intense and detail-heavy, and deadlines can sometimes feel demanding. - Priorities may shift quickly, which can make it hard to plan ahead. - At times, the volume of revisions and fast pace can be stressful.
