Step above freelance - Sr. UX Designer` Aquent Employee Review

Great communication. Good benefit package offered.

Difficult software requirements to utilize tools

Decent benefits, but Cigna insurance likes to take the cheap route on everything from MRIs to colonoscopies.

For "budgetary reasons," my contract work for an industrial automation company got "offshored" to Asia. After working on the same ongoing project for over six years, Aquent didn't respond to my application for work on other projects, and they completely cut me off from company email or anything else. In total, I had worked for them for more than 7.5 years, and this is the way they treat people?! Also, I never got a raise in that entire time. Actually, I went from being a fulltime employee to hourly talent when there was an earlier shortage of work.
