Pros

Placed on a client site quickly Some management care and have just been dealt a bum hand

Cons

Training completely irrelevant to role Awful salary Threats of having to pay back an extortionate 12k for training that included one irrelevant certification. They are an in house trainer but it would have been cheaper to use an external provider. Refuse to break down training costs when asked Management ignore emails Don't believe you're getting a salary increase after a year, that's a lie. Find out that your contract is up and they want you to leave QA and move to the client from the client themselves. QA are happy for you to move to the client and then you don't have to pay back training but not for you to leave, interesting loophole isn't it. Stay away from this firm, many other consultancies do not charge graduates for training. I can't wait to see them take me to court and all the horror stories of contacts over the last few years will come out.

Pros

The skills platform developed by the former Cloud Academy team was innovative and well-received by customers.

Cons

Since my voluntary departure, the company has proven to be unreliable and somewhat cagey. Under the terms of their articles of association and ISD, they had 12 months to repurchase my preferred shares. Nearly 18 months have passed, and they refuse to repurchase my shares or communicate any reasons for the delay. One might conclude that they are dealing with financial difficulties.
