REST Solution

Pros: You get a good amount of PTO, which really helps balance things. Sometimes you can work from home too, which is a big plus. For software development roles, it's pretty standard.
Cons: Expect some longer hours, especially when project deadlines hit. On-call rotations can really mess with your evenings and weekends. There's not always much flexibility in the Austin, TX office.
Advice to Management: Try to manage project scope better to reduce crunch times. More predictability in schedules would really help everyone.

Pros: The client retention for their IT services is pretty solid. It feels stable enough for a mid-sized tech company. As a Software Engineer, I didn't worry about mass layoffs.
Cons: Growth isn't always smooth sailing here. They don't always have a clear pipeline for new projects. There's some concern about project-based roles ending without a new one lined up, especially in the San Francisco office.
Advice to Management: Try to provide more transparency on future project pipeline. It would help a lot with employee morale and retention.
