Pros

When I was placed, it was a good experience, was able to expand my horizons and get some broad experience in a variety of technologies while on a company help desk

Cons

1. Compensation was lousy, 2. Their idea of a performance review was to tell me to iron my shirts even thought the projects I worked on brought wide client praise and their compensation was hinged on signing an oppressive no-compete agreement 3. They regularly took advantage of their staff by taking on projects with impossible deadlines and making them work weekends and sixteen hour days because of their poor planning and misguided management philosophy. 4. I was made to service a manager's home computer at his house because I did not want to sacrifice six weeks of my life to travel across the country to be a big wig's valet. 5 At the time I worked there they hired Business Analysts from Salvaggio's alma mater regardless of their IT skills and then proceeded to try to make all of us get retrained in basic computer science and programming on weekends and evenings. I told them no, I already had a Computer Science degree and wasn't going to waste my time repeating stuff I already had a degree in from an accredited university.

Pros

Pay is decent if you are higher up.

Cons

Hourly employees are just a commodity...they are a means to a profitable end for leadership. If you have the right last name, you will go far!

Pros

Fully remote roles available. Colleagues at the individual contributor level are generally capable and well-intentioned.

Cons

Inconsistent leadership direction and shifting expectations. Senior program and delivery roles lack clear authority despite high accountability. Delivery issues are often treated as individual performance problems rather than systemic ones. Strong emphasis on optics and reporting over meaningful problem-solving. Limited psychological safety for raising risks or structural concerns.
