Pros

This is a fast growing company with a lot of work to offer. Very high tech and innovative. Highly qualified professionals and lots of room to move up... If only...

Cons

Management shows great disregard for employee matters, especially having to do with wage increases, and minorities and older workers wanting to "climb the corporate ladder". Since I started working here years ago, the company has yet to give us one single salary increase and they have refused to allow me or others of any minority racial/ethnic group to move up to important management positions. The company has instead hired solely young, inexperienced White people of, Caucasian descent. Lately they have hired a few Blacks in very low level lead positions and that's about it. No matter how many years of experience one brings to the table, and how much they praise one's hard work, top level quality work and, reliability, the Asians, Blacks, Hispanics, Hindi, etc., always get passed over by young, inexperienced, White Caucasian employees for management positions.

Pros

* Strong brand recognition and an impressive roster of clients and projects. * Opportunity to work with talented colleagues across multiple business segments. * Exposure to a fast-paced environment that provides significant professional growth and learning opportunities.

Cons

* Lack of consistent leadership visibility and clear strategic direction across parts of the organization. * Communication from senior leadership can be limited, leaving employees without a clear understanding of priorities and long-term goals. * Decision-making often feels reactive rather than proactive. * Accountability and partnership are inconsistent across teams and business segments. * Employees may not always feel adequately supported when raising concerns or navigating challenging situations. * Leadership teams are often stretched thin, which can impact coaching, communication, and overall employee support. * Performance evaluation and promotion processes can lack transparency, making it difficult to understand how decisions are made. * Employee experiences can vary significantly depending on team, manager, and business segment. * Opportunities for feedback exist, but employees do not always see meaningful action taken in response to recurring concerns. * Collaboration and cross-functional alignment can be challenging at times due to differing priorities and expectations.
