Pros

Decent salary, smart people to work with, almost fully remote options, paid team offsites every 1 or 2 quarters

Cons

The projects in ProServe are crap... the customer either hires you as a dummy to do grunt work, or to do something crazy like solve all of humanity's problems. There's not much in between. ProServe, I realized, is just a stepping stone into SDE or SA positions, or the occasional manager. Don't stay here for more than 2 years, few people do anyway

Pros

Competitive salary with stock options. Exposition to interesting projects.

Cons

A lot of unnecessary projects that get buried after a year just causing clutter. There are hot periods like the annual review where you have to step up your game by exceeding the amount of working hrs per day to stay ahead of your competitors (colleagues). Lots of office politics.
