Pros

They do pay well and allow working remote.

Cons

Where to start...company culture does not exist. Basically, you are in the club or you are not. And if you don't live in NJ then you are not in the club. They have no consideration for work life balance (lunch time and after-hours meetings). They push everyone to charge higher rates which result in loss of clients in the smaller markets. Financially they separate the disciplines, which then turns groups against each other because not reaching their unattainable goals is just another reason for them to lower your bonus. Also constantly threating middle management with laying off their employees while still spending a gross amount of overhead. Toxic people in management keep getting promoted...the list goes on and on. Do yourself a favor and skip applying to this company.
