Pros

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Most have been there one to three decades! A very good work-life balance. New Senior Managers are very savvy and reasonable. They actually give comp days for weekends/holidays worked!

Cons

Pay-scale is below the charts. Little recognition for the travel/stress. New, smart talent is rarely retained. Poor accountability for consultants' and developers' work, which makes for a (somewhat) sloppy product. They make all consultants do all facets (vs specializing). 12 years without one company meeting.

Pros

Great communication to sales, weekly meetings, product team reviews. Good opportunity for a self-starter with strong professional sales experience.

Cons

Very lean operationally, you have to be aware that you need to be able to drive your own success as there are not big support teams.

Pros

The work itself can be interesting if you enjoy consulting, and the clients are genuinely great to work with. This was once a really good company with a strong culture before the private equity takeover — sadly, that version no longer exists.

Cons

Management is a disaster from top to bottom. Constant micromanagement while simultaneously having no real understanding of what consultants actually do day-to-day. Priorities shift constantly — what was critical last week is completely irrelevant this week, with zero explanation. Communication is poor at best, nonexistent at worst. Leadership doesn't listen to the people on the ground doing the actual work. To top it off, they are aggressively outsourcing to India, so don't get too comfortable in your role regardless of how well you perform.
