Pros

Good work-life balance if you know the work and if you are experienced. Management provides opportunity if you are eager to demonstrate any new ideas.

Cons

I have been in this role for over two years now and the work that we get is less when compared to peers from abroad. It is usually integration work or not much valued work.

Pros

The people in non- upper management roles that work there are fantastic. Great sense of community onsite and the culture champions are consistently looking for ways to make work life better.

Cons

Very poor communication on the strategy for the business unit. Leadership publicly promotes innovation and new ideas to be presented but then those ideas are shot down or penalized in private by current upper management. The business unit leadership says that don't want excuses for project delays but will then decide to do 3 major layoffs in the first two quarters with no transition plan, no support for gap in resources and no expectations to delayed progress.
