Pros

1) Great place if you wish to gain exposure to large MNC work culture. Emphasis on upskilling via the provision of training courses and certifications 2) Decent medical and dental benefits

Cons

1) Lack of forward planning, Company seems to still hire when there is an excess/abundance of talent in the company during a short supply of projects available. 2) Efficient resource planning is non-existent as talents are just thrown into projects just so that topline expectations can be met. 3) No mentorship and guidance, projects that are available (rarely) are badly handled and messy, More of a wait-and-see approach to which eventually all hell breaks loose 4) Astounding absence of courage to take the hit during the fall. Management does not seem to acknowledge their mistakes when it happens, more often than not brushing it off and giving excuses. 5) Compensation is poor, no AWS or bonus. 6) Career growth is extremely hard as you can ONLY gain experience via the projects you are placed on, assuming there is one for you. And if so, you're normally stuck there till project is completed or you decide to throw the towel in first (normally the latter) 7) Toxic senior leadership (a specific BU)

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
