Pros

Extremely large, well known company with internal room to make connections and grow. Training program for new hires was quite valuable.

Cons

There is a disconnect between recruiters and the company. They tell you that they will place you near home, then once you accept the offer they change and say you'll actually have to move. Once placed in a position, you'll find the majority of people BS around all day and work/innovation comes to a crawl. Meeting after meeting, grunt work, and you end up sitting around wondering what you've actually accomplished. CSC will higher you for a lower paying job role, and once hired they'll change your role to a more prestigious one, while keeping your salary at the lower paying job's level. Ex: They hire you as a junior BA, then switch you to a mid level developer.

Pros

Many of the people you get to work with are really nice.

Cons

Management is killing company to drive stock price higher so they can cash out. Clients are not cared about, nor are the everyday employees.

Pros

Initial salary was competitive, offered tuition reimbursement, flexible schedule.

Cons

Raises are pathetic to nonexistent (3% is considered a "good" raise). The forced "bell-curve" review system is draconian at best, in 2014 they changed their 401k match such that you only get it if you stay with the company the entire year. They expect managers to have at least 30 direct reports, and managers rarely if ever actually meet the people they manage. This means they cannot write effective performance reviews, and these ineffective performance reviews inevitably mean no raises for the employees.
