Pros

Good consulting experience and very knowledgeable people

Cons

The company tries so hard to be the next Accenture or Deloitte and it is pretty similar to them in the way it is run and is operated however lacks the ability to efficiently manage the available resource pool. You overhear a lot the term lean and bottleneck by higher management which are often transalted into terminating people who were trained for their position to hire new one who have to undergo new training. If only someone could remind them that lean management is more of a operational approach rather than HR approach... So far there have been three huge layovers (60 people in January 2013, 20 people in February and 29 people in March that has been justiicaed by the need to better align their business priorities. I wonder what kind of public company is this that needs to adjust the business priorities every so often.

Pros

Strong in strategy work , I believe there are a few smart people left in the organization. Free soda!

Cons

They hire in masses, hire experienced people as Sr Managers and Directors and ask them to do development/coding ! Project pipeline not very strong now. Rumor is that they had 2 rounds of layoffs already - may be many more to come the way they are losing clients. I am not adding anything on the benefits part as anyway it is pathetic and many others have already highlighted the same.

Pros

This place will give you a pay check for a while. It will provide air conditioning and heating in the office. You will also get a lap top. And office pens. Bathrooms are provided in office.

Cons

The company has problems getting and keeping clients. That translates to very little job security unless you are one of the cronies. New people get the blame for anything regardless. The company does rotating layoffs and the staff cannot do anything about it besides try to undermine each other so they will not be laid off. There is no vacation time and if you resign, you discover that no vacation time that you didn't take accrued so they don't pay you for unused time, because they claim it never existed. The health benefits are very poor with huge deductables and if you happen to get sick even for a short time, you won 't be around very long. They are into staff augmentation for companies and the imaginative work is not there. They cut and paste from other prior clients.
