If You’re Billable, You’re Fine. If Not, Good Luck. - Recensione dipendente - IAM Consultant presso TriVir

Opportunity to learn a lot and take ownership of many different projects. Always learning something new.

No cons really, it’s a great place to work as an engineer. You need to understand that you’re in the business of selling hours of great work. To minimize the possibility of not succeeding, you need to be disciplined and on top of your performance across projects, as well as how your peers are liking working with you.

Free snacks in the fridge and occasional “team-building” events to keep up appearances.

This company paints a perfect picture—almost cult-like—in getting you to believe that everything is going well, but suddenly, you’re out of a job. They’re great at highlighting the positives but conveniently omit the negatives. If you’re not billing to a client consistently, the writing is on the wall. The CEO’s greed drives every decision, and employees seem to worship him. The company runs solely on billable work, so if you’re not actively bringing in revenue, you’re expendable. They even have PS5s in their offices that are caked up with dust because employees are too afraid to take a break—they’re too focused on staying billable to avoid being the next to go.
