Pros

1. Very stable company. 2. They are like family and treat you well. 3. They are not known for laying off people. 4. If they lose a customer (for any reason) they will move you somewhere else or make you work at their office so you don't stay idle. That's a very good thing. 5. Health Coverage provided is very good.

Cons

1. Not known to be good paymasters. 2. Promotion prospects are good only in management track, not in programmer track. 3. Job titles are very ordinary in programmer track.

Pros

- Met some good people (mostly contractors or engineers) - Learned valuable experience in workplace politics - Great 9-5 work hours

Cons

- Management style is by threats and intimidation. - Outdated company product, and terrible projects. - Managers that exceed at this place are very skilled in politics, and pursue their own interests at the expense of the client and the employees.

Pros

Incredible learning opportunities for young people or those starting careers in software development, consulting or project management. Challenging work, a huge variety of experiences that few other companies, larger and smaller, can offer to college grads or IT newbies. Seasoned, experienced managers (depends on location/account) Excellent if you are entrepreneurial & push yourself to seek out and take on new opportunities

Cons

Limited opportunities for career advancement. Great opportunities if you're just starting out, but career development tapers off and plateaus. The work experience and culture vary a great deal depending on where in the company you work, who your managers are, your role, what your account is, etc. You could end up with a stellar mentor, great skills building experience, or you could become someone's peon. Limited skills development and training. Company can be extremely stingy on instructional courses, books, training, etc. Your skills will go stale unless you maintain them yourself. Favoritism in the corporate office (for both people and pet projects) Core business is legacy systems - hard to develop skills or stay up-to-date if your day-to-day is on systems that are 10+ years old. Some employees are mediocre Low salary
