Pros

Location of office in Newton, near Orcahard

Cons

Extremely long hours. Worked over 15 hours everyday even during covid period because of incompetent colleagues. Vicious cycle of charging the clients low price for projects and then employees have to doctor their timesheets to ensure that they can meet the changeability. But then comes back to question us why we are not entering the correct values.

Pros

None. Literally none. Amazing that I cannot think of a single thing. I’m staying because the job market is awful otherwise I am out of here.

Cons

- carousel of management. Changing every several months - constant reorganization, hired for a role you want then moved to a role without input as a part of a reorganization - employees of set up to fail - management is suspect in their talent and ability to build a culture worth having - trying to “scale” products without a client first mentality - profits over people - legacy remote work allows people to skate by without actually doing work - history of hiring suspect CEOs because of nepotism - people get paid obscene amounts for doing little work. And if they do work, it is so awful.
