Pros

Not much that I could think of unless you count the day I got laid off. This company is a mixed bag of shells and depending on the account you get on it might be different.

Cons

Lack of any decent management. When I say the management is unprofessional it is to the highest degree. They prefer to replace onshore workers for cheaper foreign workers, giving the foreign workers all the training they could offer. If you ask for training onshore you will be denied. When I mentioned it to my manager he just told me "you are a second class citizen". Raises come in small amounts and the chance to learn and grow into a better role is none. Oh, when they lay you off it will be in an email with a letter that offers the number to the suicide hotline. How pathetic, who would kill themselves over losing a terrible job at CSC. A really cold company with little to offer and even if your manger knows something is wrong they will not stand up for you. Instead they just hide and barely do there jobs as they are scared of getting laid off themselves. The situation got worse every year I was with them.

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.
