Pros

Cafeteria is nice with big windows. Big emphasis on safety.

Cons

The company runs on gossip and hearsay instead of facts. There is no real support and folks will smile at you while backstabbing you in the back. They have no qualms in discrediting you personally to clients and your future employees if it makes them look better because they hand such a poor reputation, the character and integrity of the people at the firm is poor. The teams play favorites with clients, telling one configuration is possible while denying technical feasibility with another client to gain favor with the other client to help them keep their competitive edge. Environment is hugely patriarchal, with females hated or doted on, being called suggestive names by senior leaders. The internal fighting and politics is counterproductive and they routinely kick out senior leaders who invested their time and money into the company. Work wise, a lot of it is full of highly questionable deliverables. I saw one consultant draw a line in PowerPoint and then partners nod as it was present it to the client as a deliverable. Any challenges to improve the work lead to being personally discredited. I observed a lot of shady work done overall, with little business or ethical lines they will not cross. Spoke to John the CEO briefly and he gave non answers and showed no interest in my question. Team is always cutting people because they cannot sell business reliably.p as a result. Highly recommended staying away.

Pros

Very good technical development sessions. Eight hour work days.

Cons

Salaries are heavily biased towards one ethnicity. Gender bias as well. Sweet talk same work but less exposure and definitely less salary. Also caught when a recruiter sent the same job to personal email. No discussion yet on career goals. Offer letter was rude. Asked for a min 2 yr service requirement for a 5k moving cost. 401k is 50% of employee contribution capped at 6%. 6% is employee contribution . Means Company pays only upto 3%. Have to slog 15 yrs for entry level min to get associate status. No 401k until second yr. No overtime. Claim flat structure but no involvement in technical meetings where stamping needs to be done by the said engineer.
