Vantaggi
Some interesting clients and projects. The companies they purchased had some really talented people, and worked with a wide range of Microsoft technologies. Remote work generally an option and work/life balance has been OK in my team at least.
Svantaggi
Inconsistent, usually non-existent communication from management on all fronts - about big or small issues. Feedback from employees, even on heavily pushed staff surveys, is not even acknowledged, never mind acted on. Decision making from owners around hiring, internal changes, and redundancies is clearly focused on short term financial gains at the expense of long term stability and success. Generally it's been absolute chaos throughout the organisation for a few years, since they purchased several other companies - they tried to do too much too fast, didn't understand the companies they were buying, and it has come at the expense of any semblance of culture or control over the situation, with the loss of a lot of talented staff along the way. Constant changes to the company org chart, with senior leaders frequently leaving or rotating through roles. Pay has been low and stagnant for almost 3 years, with below inflation pay rises. Benefits are the bare minimum, bordering on negligible. Senior management seem to be kept out of the loop on key decisions made by the company's owners, so a lot of "decisions" seem to be last minute, poorly communicated, or not thought through. Very little trust across the organisation - both in terms of management not treating employees like professionals and adults, and in terms of employees not being able to trust management, or even that their job is secure.
