Pros

The office is outstanding. high class. There are procedures and training in place to take you as far as you want to go with your career. No need to be in every day. They are very open to hybrid. Often have specialist talks open with industry leaders coming in.

Cons

Manager unable to keep a hold on my workload. Part of an extremely small team here, which was not told to me as part of my interview / onboarding process. Office atmosphere very subdued and quiet. Little activity / people wanting to hang out outside of work hours.

Pros

Plenty of friendly coworkers; Can gain a decent amount of experience Decent benefits, especially medical, dental, and vision insurance.

Cons

Working from home can be slow and finicky due to servers being scrambled across the country which is discouraging for hybrid and fully remote workers. Not a lot of communication between employees, especially since there is not a lot of work so you would have to keep pressing coworkers for more work and direction. Work/Life Balance is hard to maintain since PTO, Sick leave and vacation are merged and I have to come in early. If given work, you can probably have enough to do in order to fill in timesheets, but there are plenty of times when you might not have enough work and you would have to grasp at straws just to make it to 8 hours of work each day. My role feels more like I'm working as a GIS Technician instead of an Analyst given the lack of clarity in the job description. There is no true technical training program. You would just have to search online for anything you don't know how to do.
