Pros

- Good office and timely salary

Cons

- Poor management at all the levels - Culture of favouritism runs deep - Non recognition of work and efforts - Top management (VPs, MD, Group Directors, Practice Leads etc) always feeds bs sandwich when asked for business outlook, opportunities and projects - Ambition/aspiration has no place here and career progress goes for a toss in almost all cases - Doesn't focus on selling project which doesn't have Sitecore or Salesforce component to it - Layoffs of super loyal employees in the name of not being able to bring business - No process being followed when it comes to executing projects, sub-standard work is carried out and doesn't follow best or industry accepted practices in general

Pros

Fairly flexible working environment. Benefits exist but aren't strong.

Cons

TOXIC hustle. Lots of behind the scenes talking that leads to awful culture. WRETCHED CEO on the Talent side. They put that they are minority-owned on the front door to capitalize on that buzz, but then are run entirely by white, middle aged men. POC are abysmally represented as there are less than a handful working there. It's a sham of a place. Used to have a great company culture, but that went out the window with the political shift in America. Talent side of things is hot garbage. Digital side is finding their way through.
