Pros

Very good corporate HR. Great pay for senior contractors.

Cons

I was hired for a specific very senior contract role and was never permitted to work in that role or even review existing documents to assume the role. My manager scheduled me for client activities from 8:00 AM until 8:30 PM and then required that I only report an eight hour work day to the client... He further said that if I needed more that 8 hours for the 12 hr. schedule; I was doing something wrong. After many years working at the executive level, this was perhaps the worst experience of my career.

Pros

The company is rising the ranks as they are combining all of their internal business teams and processes as well as they are capable of.

Cons

You are a number. The family dedication of 'doing whatever it takes to get the job done' is gone, as new management has come in and made everything a calculation. They have slashed every US job they can, and if you're in the EU and your role can be sent to India, you are next. If your individual math doesn't add up for longer than 2 weeks, you'll be on your way out. If you are on vacation, you are also questioned about that math not adding up. Just added a bench process to get everyone infighting for roles they aren't appropriate for and dragging out their personal needs. A select few are exempt, even though the bench process isn't fully working or completely understood. Reporting structures are all in flux and everyone is 3 months into the year without identified goals or team reporting set for the year.
