Pros

The people you work with are nice. If you come to the attention of the client as a Subject Matter Expert, you will be widely appreciated.

Cons

The technology is old. Leadership doesn't want to invest in new ideas. The work is stagnant. All you do is maintain an existing system.

Pros

Urban Science has a great culture. The Long Beach office has a very tech industry feel to it. No free food, but they have a sleek new upgraded office, and game rooms for relaxing between projects. What makes them great is the people. I have been there for 6 years, and by far everyone who works there is very smart and knowledgeable. This was a great company to start off with, and will be for years to come.

Cons

-No free food -Disconnect between the account management teams, and the IT teams -Hard to get them adapt to new technologies -Slow moving at times, and IT loves putting up red tape
