Vantaggi
- One of the more accommodating companies I've worked for with regards to working remotely. - Office building is in a super convenient location for public transit, and an unlimited Orca (public transit) card is provided. - Colleagues are hard-working and smart.
Svantaggi
- In order to meet your "billability goals" (huge in consulting) you'll be working unpaid overtime. (Potentially lots of it) - Sick time counts against you. While it's part of a benefits package, in order to meet your billability goal, you'll have to make that time up with, you guessed it, unpaid overtime. - There's little or no incentive to working efficiently, you'll still have to find work to fill those hours. (Even though it's a salaried position, every time card must have 40 hours or more on it.) - Even those at the lower levels (CL1, CL2, CL3) who receive bonuses, it's nowhere near compensating for the unpaid overtime spent. - Wages are not competitive. The salary I receive is not commensurate with the cost of living in this city. Seattle just passed a $15/hr minimum wage, which, after the unpaid overtime, tracks closely to (and some weeks is greater than) what I take home.
