Pros

- There a few interesting projects. Under a smaller firm you can do more variety of work. - They will overpay to get people on board (but as you'll read later, no many people stay because this company has many shortcomings)

Cons

- A lot of times, employees are doing work with their hands tied behind their back. Cannot even install software tools on laptop without going to IT. - No communication from upper management, no feedback, do not know the stratigic vision of the company - Poor logistics, long time to receive expenses, a lot of proceses are still manual, quite frustrating - Poor respect for employees. No expectation management at all, often times people will be "thrown under the bus". No accountability from top to bottom and within teams.

Pros

I've had the privilege to work with extremely talented people. Unfortunately, they don't stick around long after it's realized what an atrocious, dysfunctional company this is. Most find a better opportunity within 3 months.

Cons

I can't accentuate enough the appalling treatment of employees. There is a huge disrespect for employees. Major lack of management ability, lack of professionalism and lack of communication with employees are very prominent. To put it bluntly, there is a revolving door here and no talented employees remain for any length of time. To get unemployed talented people to come on board, they have been known to lie to them in their offer letter. Then when they come on board, it is discovered that they are not hired for the job they are lead to believe they are accepting. This is a common practice. Benefits are tremendously lacking. What few benefits they do have are EXTREMELY costly to employees due to the lack of contribution on behalf of the company. There is very little PTO and vacation time available to any employees. There are very stringent rules against using any vacation and PTO/sick time and it is looked down upon if you do want to use it. There is no work at home option for any employees except a for a few privileged managers. This company is extremely "cheap" and employees are not given the tools to do their jobs in an adequate manner. hey are extremely 'secretive' about the organization and it's business processes and practices or lack thereof. The internal business practices with employees they DO have are extremely unethical and alarming, to put it mildly. It will be only a matter of time before their clients learn the internal aspects mentioned here and look elsewhere for a business partner. It is unlike anything I've ever seen or experienced in my 25+ years of business. I would not recommend this company to my worst enemy.

Pros

Small teams and good electronic communications. Bonuses are consistently given annually.

Cons

There’s no internal structure or room for professional and salary growth. Bonuses are minimal and dispersed over a 12 month period.
