Pros

- good training, great starting salary, a lot of freedom, nice colleagues, some outstanding and easy-to-approach-to managers, interesting projects if one has the chance to be successfully placed onto one

Cons

- heavy workload, normal working hours (8am to 6pm) are often not considered and manager reserves the right to contact employees out of hours and during holidays, depending on manager: often not interested in one's skills or ideas but just in one's contribution to the manager's own project, takes a long time to be placed on a project so majority of the time is spent doing small tasks that do not provide many learning opportunities (e.g. adjusting PPT slides)

Pros

Great atmosphere from day to day employees/ coworkers Nice restrooms… Great break rooms, Free drinks and snacks, as this used to be a vending machine until it started costing money.. especially the Austin office. Great receptionist, she was amazing always made sure every employee felt welcomed and ready to work

Cons

Terrible management, I mean seriously it’s a joke, you would think corporate America has been shaped slightly different but Jeesh, the Austin office is of two demographics, As this company is really only 2 demographics sadly that is what is pushed on the US side, aside from developers whom are wonderful from the UK house.
