Pros

Good salaries, they pay well. Good benefits program too. Mostly very nice people, although they tend to the techy-nerd side. They do some good work, especially .Net and Microsoft solutions work. Very MS focused company, trying to get even deeper into MS relationships.

Cons

Will work you to death - mandatory 50 hours weeks, plus 1-2 nights per week of company functions. Lots of long hours, no OT pay. Like a gerbil on a treadmill. Lots of religious overtones, not a place for socializing, more of a work hard and pray model. Hiring tons of college grads, working them hard then replacing them in 2-3 years with fresh grads. Up or out, hierarchical consulting model invented by Andersen. Only room for a few at the top, but plenty of young fresh talent at the bottom.

Pros

It’s a good place for kids coming right out of school. Don’t stay here long term.

Cons

Working here is awful. Insecure manic leadership with poor communication skills. Lots of plans for bigger or better things. Don’t let the talk fool you. Ask what is actually happening and what has happened because their execution sucks. Good at faking it. They say they like unique individuals but you either have to conform or they will find ways to push you out. Really just creating an army of dolphin loving clone bots. one review said “cult like” I agree with that. Wish I would have seen that before I started. Upper management is unorganized and does not like to hear constructive feedback. Unless you are a conservative white dude I wouldn’t reccomend working here. Can’t wait to find another job and get out.

Pros

Pariveda only hires for full time, salaried positions. There is little national travel (only for training really) and the consultants spend a majority of their time at the local client site. Everyone receives a semi-annual and annual review like clockwork and there is a structured mentoring program in place. I believe that I had my mentor paired up with me within the first 3 days of employment. What’s new for me, and I haven’t seen at the other companies that I’ve worked for is that there are company paid premiums for healthcare/dental, and they matching your 401k starting day 1! No vesting over however-many years.

Cons

This job is not for everyone. If you're someone who wants to be comfortable in a role for a while, you will find that Pariveda is a better environment for people that want to remain on the fast track and continue to grow in their career and get promoted every 12-18mo's.
