Pros

The other new hires were nice and did their best

Cons

If you are thinking "oh, it can't be that bad" after reading some of the reviews on here, I am here to assure you that it is actually that bad. I was hired as part of a new design program and the miscommunications or lack of communication started from day 1. They will try to relocate you all across the country and back again, and blame you for being uncooperative if there are no projects. I didn't hear from my manager for weeks at a time with no guidance on what to do. There is very little actual work to be done and they will try to push you onto projects you have literally no experience for (they tried to have me join a client as a programmer) and will expect you to be able to do anything for them on very little notice. Even the separation process was a mess. The HR rep missed my exit interview and I had no way to contact them. I was unable to return company assets for a month because no one answered my emails requesting a mailing address to send them to. No one is ever at the office. There is a company culture of no accountability, no responsibility, and no empathy.
