Pros

Money was decent, but not worth the stress and bad environment.

Cons

Backstabbing/arrogant/rude staff, micro managing, lack of training, unrealistic demands / utilization goals, hostile work environment,...... (I was fired based on lies about me talking too much, coming in late, etc. Company will say anything to fire you if they run out of work and are unwilling to provide training on other tasks. I was told told to "shape up or ship out" based on said lies and for not completing one task quickly enough (although I worked until midnight several nights on this tedious task). I knew how to do the task, it was simply a long job. A certain person told the manager and I was put on 30 day notice. Although I performed pretty well with the work given during this period, I was told I would be fired unless I traveled to Houston to live for 6 months (which I could not do for personal reasons). So glad to be away from this awful company!

Pros

This company has a great culture. They have managed to achieve a family feel despite being spread across 60 office locations, which is no easy task!

Cons

None that I can think of
