Horrible benefits

Pros

Plenty of billable work. Hybrid schedule. You get salary and straight time overtime.

Cons

You will be overworked and underpaid. No mentorship. No collaboration . No guidance . Be prepared to be tasked with things that you need to figure out all on your own . Billable hours are the only thing that upper management cares about. A lot of travel and poor work life balance. Company is Penny pinchers. You won’t be given decent computers, or other tools to succeed. No training uptight corporate atmosphere culture. Only two weeks PTO.

Pros

Not many , large/cool projects

Cons

Holy cow way way way to many to list would , could fill a book. Here are just some: Huge company and want to double in size in 3 yrs by buying b.c they can’t grow organically. IT, HR and accounting outsourced to India , it’s a nightmare , can’t bill for months. Takes three weeks to open a project! Terrible middle management on a local level. Terrible senior management up to ceo, don’t care at all about thier employees just a number but will tell you they do . They have to throw money/raises around to keep people and then complain that margins are low. Managememt by spreadsheet útil/margins no sense of how work is done. Lots of bullying on the management level They send senseless surveys on thoughts/how they can do better only to ignore them. Constant reorg and constant intergration of new companies , 5k people leave, they buy 10k compa y and wow they still have 5k left

Very Corporate/terrible leadership in USA

Pros

The pay was fair to good.

Cons

The company culture (if you can call it that) is one of mixed messages and under cutting. Like any company they talk about the importance of employees but it’s just window dressing. This company is managed by accountants and you better hit your numbers every quarter or you’re gone. All moves are to cut costs and boost profits to show significant lenders their investment is worthy. In a constant state of reorganizing that leads to so much wasted time trying to understand what your work environment will be rather than focusing on important things like work. The supporting systems are outdated. The company had an overall feel of being a mess and lots of work needed to get internal systems functioning let alone functioning well. Leadership in business line and USA corporate is insincere and lacking. People in leadership positions train their successors through acquisitions and then get go. Toxic work environment all around.
