Pros

Variety of jobs/duties. Upper management good. Some jobs allow flexible scheduling. Lots of movement. Coworkers nice and professional. Facilities clean and room for breaks.

Cons

Some middle management is short sided and difficult to approach. Seem offended at the idea of improving or enhancing efficiency.

Pros

Friendships with the other consultants

Cons

Management does not care about its workers and has no loyalty toward them. They are disrespectful to the employees because they believe the workers feel they have no where else to go. People get stuck working there for many years and then realize it was a low paying waste of time. My advise to them is get an education or training in some kind of field so you won't wake up one morning and realize they have wasted their lives on a dead end company that sees you as a semi warm piece of meat.

Pros

Great environment, flexile management, professional growth, employee centered company.

Cons

I have yet to discover anything that I dislike about the company thus far. Maybe it is the location I work at, or maybe I just love my job that much.
