Pros

Pay is competitive and there's a great view from the office.

Cons

Where to start? The very structure of this organization (experts in their own silo, pool of staff where only the favorites get projects) does not the stage for a workplace that has open communication, learning opportunities, mentorship, or equal distribution of work. If you make a single mistake, you're likely to be fired. If you ask questions, you will be looked at like a moron. There are no programs in place to get a new employee up to speed, and no support system among employees. I would go entire weeks without anyone making eye contact or saying hello. There is also no path to promotion, no feedback about the work you create, and no room to learn new things. There is literally nothing worth while about BRG. If you are considering working here, please, save yourself the unavoidable misery and go work ANYWHERE else.

Pros

They pay you very well, and if you have a strong work ethic, the work isn't hard at all. I think people nowadays are either too soft or just lazy, and complain about "just work". What do you think you're supposed to do when you're on the clock? The culture is fun, and they want you to connect with your co-workers and engage in various activities. If you aren't remote, they also offer a lot of activities that the company will pay for (hockey games, holiday parties, etc). They are flexible (at least on my team) with your schedule and very understanding if you need some time off during your regular work hours,

Cons

The training process was not very good. On some instances, it even seemed like the direction they wanted our team to go changed DURING training, so you would be focusing all of your energy on understanding one thing, and out of the blue, our responsibilities changed. They seem to have a divide and conquer mindset in training, pushing others ahead, and leaving people (hired at the same time) behind. If you reach out to people that have been pushed ahead, you are reprimanded as if there is some top secret level of information that you are not worthy of having being included in.
