Pros

CSC has a lot of Growth opportunities, with plenty of head room. You have the ability to work in a consulting environment, within the secure confines of a large federally focused system integrator. Managers are fair, and strive to provide a reasonable work life balance. Excellent educational reimbursement program - $15K towards grad school per year, compared to $5K for Booz and other competitors.

Cons

There are plenty of silos. Departments are often territorial, and rarely collaborative. Management sometimes tends to get caught up in the past. CSC has traditionally been down in the trenches, pulling cables and connecting servers. Therefore it's consulting offering does not share the same brand equity as competitors, like Accenture, IBM and Booz.

Pros

Good benefits including 401(k) with company match.

Cons

Unrealistic workload. The pay does not match the amount of stress that comes from the amount of work given. They are hiring new employees for the same role offering about $30k-$40k more than they pay those who have been there for years instead of compensating current employees fairly. Management is out of touch. They are so focused on numbers that they cannot clearly see the internal issues that are compromising relationships with customers.
