Pros

I guess people are overall friendly

Cons

Lack of feedback and mentorship. Projects can be very client driven and change or are abandoned midway very frequently, leading to zero sense of ownership and success. There is no organized team or group structure, which destroys fluidity. Average age at my branch was 50+ and I was their last hire (2018).

There is freedom to approach each project as you see fit. Strong support from senior leadership.

Cons

When several programs peak at the same time the hours start to creep up pretty quickly.
