Pros

Cant think of any at present

Cons

- Company's focus is cost..cost..cost. No focus on revenue. In the last year there have been multiple reorgs, with 80% of directors/VPs gone. Benefits premiums on average increase exponentially every year. Leave plan revamped and limited carryover - If you are a "high earner" (defined by HR), you may lose your job one find day even if you are critical to your project or client. The mandate is to replace with a low cost (and possibly incompetent) resource - No revenue focus. No new projects, logos. The management focus is to just get the shareprice up and sell - No support to delivery organization. You are left on your own to manage clients and deliver - Due to multiple reorgs there is now a confusing reporting structure. If you do well, there is no one to praise or reward you. If you mess up, you'll find 10 different stakeholders jumping on you - No salary hikes this year for 90+ % of people. Lower management forced to put 40% of workforce under partial/does not meets expectations in performance review - The applications development organization is being run by two "Jokers" (i cannot find a better word) who come up with ideas every few weeks to cut cost. These have to be implemented or people ate fired or shouted at. - Professionalism, employee growth, benefits are all but dead in CSC

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.
