Not a place for Minorities

Pros

Good pay, good pto and decent benefits.

Cons

If you are a minority not a place to work for growth just experience. I worked there for over 5 years, all while I worked there we had over two hundred employees working in the corporate office in Auburn Hills and at the height there were a total of 4 blacks employeed, and none of them were in SR leadership or even a manager. At the same time there were over 100 employees in the shop and there was one black who worked there and he was the janitor. As a black employee we were told to do certain things to advance and when we did the rules were changed. When I addressed concerns to Human resource department was told that if I didn’t like working there to just quit.

Don't do it unless you need the experience!

Pros

FTO & ESOP are great in theory.

Cons

The work can be interesting but exhausting. To look good to the client, Account Directors will budget too few hours for you to get the job done and won't have your back when (surprise!), you go over. They barely pay a living wage for lower-level employees, but the upper level managers seem to get yearly promotions, even during a pandemic while others are getting laid off.

Not worth it

Pros

Flexible time off (if you can get your workload done), ESOP, travel, occasionally work from home, peers always willing to help

Cons

This job is the definition of “overworked and underpaid”. The culture used to make up for it but now I’d add undervalued to the list. Treated like a workhorse instead of a human being. Constantly under pressure of unrealistic deadlines, deliverables and client expectations that seem to never end.
