Pros

Would be hard pushed to find one.

Cons

If you are in any architect role that isn't at a senior level expect to be worked till you burnout. Regular all nighters occur, working weekends going 14 plus days without a break under the guise that you will get days in lieu. Only for partners to claim it was done willingly because of their great motivational skills and not the fake days in return or fear of being fired running over your head. Unfortunately the company has a great space and array of tools but the culture is completely rotten to the core. Senior partners lack any human empathy and many do not have knowledge of the required programs assuming task will be done faster than the speed of technology. Good luck being provided with any training opportunities and career development.

Pros

I had an excellent experience with Liam throughout the process. From the first point of contact to the final offer, the communication was timely, respectful, and transparent. The interviewers were professional and kind, asking insightful questions while also creating a comfortable environment.

Cons

The start date wasn’t clearly defined, however, I understand this was due to the nature of the role and internal timelines. Everything was resolved with good communication.
