Avantages
The pay can be decent if you’re able to negotiate salary. Some flexibility in work schedules.
Inconvénients
The workload placed on employees is completely unsustainable. It’s not possible to stay on top of the workload and manage a portfolio in a reasonable 40 hours. People - including managers - contact employees at all hours. During dinner, while on PTO, over the weekend, when we’re supposed to have this mythical “off-Friday” we earn for working a 4x10 schedule. So many employees I talk to are expressing the same feelings. Severe burnout, physical symptoms of extreme stress, inability to keep up. Leadership just keeps cutting staff through attrition and not backfilling. They expect people to ramp up output with AI while not dedicating resources to on-boarding AI. It’s a “do more with less” environment. Totally unsustainable and severely damaging for employees’ mental and physical health.
