Pros

-- They pay a premium -- There is no shortage of work -- There is plenty of client contact, which means networking possibilities are limitless

Cons

-- They pay a premium, but the demands placed on you typically far exceed normal human tolerances. -- There is no shortage of work...and it's usually expected to be completed in an unrealistic time frame -- Inter-discipline infighting is ridiculous. It is a dysfunctional company. -- How many more times are we going to change health insurance companies? They supposedly improve, with the cost being more to the employee, yet the raises we've gotten don't even cover the cost increase...,much less the cost-of-living increase. -- This is a top-heavy company. They need a cover letter just for the letterhead alone. Seriously, how were you promoting people in a down economy???

Pros

Some cool projects, sometimes. But these are drying up.

Cons

This Company is destined to implode on itself. Employees at lower (Staff/Senior Staff/Admin) are treated as expendables. The company culture has deteriorated from when I first joined in 2006 - all management cares about is billability, which is impossible to maintain because the lack of projects. There is no attempt to train, mentor, grow talent because there isn't any place to move up in the large inverted pyramid organizational structure. The company is terrible at immigration related issues - the person who handles this work has not a clue! There's also a tendency of some groups to grow talent to a point, and then let them go using some pretty underhanded tactics. If you like feeling exploited, frustrated and surrounded by general managerial incompetence, this is the place for you. If not, stay the hell away from this ticking time-bomb. Definitely not a place you can build a career.

Pros

Challenging work environment, lots of room for growth.The management expects a lot from the junior staff, lot of pressure to keep the billability high, which is good in the long run.

Cons

Low base salary, average benefits
