Pros
Remote work flexibility is offered on most projects. Some teams maintain a friendly and cooperative dynamic. Useful for gaining early-career experience, especially on client-facing projects.
Cons
Over time, it became clear that the environment was not structured for long-term development. While the company delivers projects efficiently, it doesn’t invest much in the people behind them. There was no clear path for growth, no mentoring, and limited technical leadership to help guide progression. Leadership was centralized and often resistant to change or feedback. Some management decisions were more about preserving control than supporting teams. Micromanagement and internal politics occasionally made collaboration unnecessarily difficult. Salaries remained below industry average, and compensation structures lacked transparency. Promised incentives (e.g. bonuses) were sometimes delayed, and there were no additional benefits to speak of. Without an HR presence, concerns often had nowhere to go. While I appreciated the initial opportunity, the absence of support for learning, ownership, or professional growth led me to pursue opportunities elsewhere.
