      All Around Mediocre

      Pros

      People are nice, Lots of work, Salary is decent.

      Cons

      1- 401k is terrible. 2.5% match is worthless. I came from a company that matched 13% and another that matched 4% plus another 10% in stock. 2 - Vacation time is terrible. Combined 18 days for sick and pto. 3 - Upper management doesn't care that you're not happy. 4 - Bonus structure.... Terrible. 5% max. 5 - Overtime - The job takes more than 40 hours a week. The employee is expected to bill a client for every hour worked. If I work 50 hours and only get paid for 40 hours then Cumming is getting extra money made off my hard work.

      Cog in the Wheel

      Project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      - Senior level management not being available in person or technology makes your work schedule flexible - a good stepping stone to move to another company

      Cons

      - Low pay : far below market - Sr. Management is incredibly unavailable. It takes numerous pings to get a response to a simple PTO request - They nickel and dime you for EVERYTHING. You have to jump thru hoops to get an expense report approved, transportation costs covered, potluck lunches (for the amount of $ that is being brought in on our specific account, cater is a damn meal once in a while) - PTO policy is laughable - Direction of the account is nonexistent - “Process Improvement” is ongoing and beaten into us but there’s no real tangible results - Sr. Management shows their face maybe 1-2 times per week - Employee input is impossible as there is no one around to voice your opinion to - team events are not paid for (my manager paid out of his own pocket for a team outing to the tune of $250) this goes a LONG way for morale - Onboarding was a nightmare. Had to fill out HR forms in two different places. - There is no sense of culture or value within our team or account

      Pros

      Above average pay. Beer in the office. There can be some fun and generous and fun events. You get to work on exciting projects.

      Cons

      Where do I begin? Senior management with no formal training or even a Bachelors degree. Unethical practices are the only thing that is consistent. The compensation and bonus program is unfair with no real parameters. All of the bonuses, vacation time allotment, salary and benefits are not transparent. There is no consistency and each person is basically given what their hiring manager believes that specific person should get. Employees from the UK are favored over the other employees. Billable time is more important than everything else. No flex time - at all. You are looked down upon if you are a few minutes late even when you worked late the day before. Benefits are expensive.

      Thank you for your review. I’m truly sorry and saddened to hear that you feel this way. As a 10 year tenured Team Member, you have likely been a catalyst to our success, culture, and growth over the years. I highly encourage you to reach out to Larry Berkel, VP of HR, and speak with him directly. For the public reading this, I do want to clarify a few items. First, benefits and PTO are 100% public knowledge and all of that information can be found on the intranet, Team Member Handbook, or you can reach out to anyone in HR to collect that information. Of the total benefit spend, the company pays 95% of all team member premiums. Regarding the education of our senior leadership – The C-Suite, Principals, and Managing Directors all possess a Bachelors Degree with multiple Masters Degrees and numerous certifications. Regardless, as stated previously, please feel free to speak with Larry Berkel so we can fully understand any frustration you may have and work towards a resolution.
