Cons
- Poor work-life balance, often overloaded with a lot of projects - Everything is tied to project hours or level of effort (LOE) with strict tracking of hours per project, employees are highly discouraged from using overhead hours, even for non-project work and company meetings, often told "the company is losing money if you charge your time to overhead," creates unnecessary stress and anxiety for employees - Can improve on DEI efforts for a more inclusive workplace
