Great Technology; Great People; finally getting out of its own way

Principal consultant

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Has a great, stated strategy, which brings great technology, delivered through terrific and committed people. Still highly relevant after 40 years of history Virtual office life is great for the right roles and the right personality Very good opportunity to make an impact if you take things seriously and are committed. Finally overcoming years of undervaluing its employees by not investing in modern tools to help them. The company has done a LOT to fix this in a short time. Ability to get a lot of variety, see a lot of different customers.

Cons

Working in the field (consulting, sales, etc) can be difficult if you are not an aggressive learner, willing to search and self-serve for where / how to do things. For younger associates, especially in the first 6-12 months it can take a while to build a network.
