Pros

a pay cheque every 2 weeks

Cons

I was promised a lot at the interview, the salary was low, but I thought the long term possibilities laid out at that interview made up for it. LOL, was I wrong. Except zero work life balance and 10 hours a day. Expect to get in trouble for even taking a little break once in a blue moon. I thought I would be rewarded for long tough hours, stress and coming home mentally exhausted, client happy, project making way over the estimated fee, etc. NOT! For all that and the FREE time I gave I was roughly getting $2/hr in my bonus. Promotions never came. Thank god I found greener pastures at another company where I got a HUGE raise. They talk a good game, but truly are a company you should avoid at all costs. They don't care about you, your career, or your success. If I could summarize PCL in one word it would be: NARCISSISTIC
