Vantaggi
- Growth of client base offers opportunities to work on multiple projects simultaneously - Opportunities to work closely with reputable clients
Svantaggi
- Lack of training (no resources available to train) or skill development - Perpetually too few resources to take on too many projects - senior management is completely focused on selling new projects without having enough resources to take these on - the small and shrinking employee base is forced to take on increasingly extreme workloads - the expectation is that employees work at all hours of the day and night, including weekends. Taking days off is frowned upon (you will work a non-trivial amount on 90+% of your vacations) - High turnover at all levels of the organization - Project timelines are so tight that they are designed to fail - every project will have the added stress that it is behind timeline and people will always be forced to work long hours to "catch up" - Compensation is lower than industry standards for the analytics industry - considering employees work 70+ hour weeks, employees deserve to be compensated at least on par with industry standards
