Pros

My co-workers are the only thing that keeps me going back, and the fact that I need to work. I continue to seek better employment.

Cons

Low pay coupled with high cost of health insurance make this full time job feel like a part time income. A company that profits in the BILLIONS annually can afford to make more of an investment in it's employees. When your full time employees qualify for social services such as Medicaid, those making the decisions should be ashamed of themselves. Employee turnover is constant and there are job fairs and ads running at all times. I applaud the management team for putting on a happy face and presenting this company as a great place to be over and over and over to every crop of new faces. It's got to be exhausting.

Pros

1. relatively aloof culture for ICs to grow on their own 2. on and off few people are good 3. Actually consultants in india are better than some full time hires to work with. The h1bs in full time roles and some GCs/Americans are just 1 step away from unemployment line but there are some good quality consultants who can be directed well to bring in good work. Problem is lack of direction when middle management is just running after money.

Cons

1. top most management is clueless to what is going post the middle tier 2. middle tiers - VPs/SVPs/Directors and Sr. Directors are among the worst. Mostly cast offs from Consulting firms/Tech cos/Other Healthcare firms, this group has some of the worst, clueless folks who just think very narrowly about how to get rid of problems, maybe craft a story for higher ups. Get rid of this layer ( so called people management ) and co. could shine better on the work of ICs, decent software engineers and regular rank and file. 3. Main money maker distribution is different from tech group and the IT here is almost comical - 2 years ago in 2024 there were "directors" bringing AI agents with 90% hallucination .. I mean that has got to be an industry first!
