Pros

Good location, nice office, Friday breakfast and Tuesday fruits. Some fun people. CEO is not bad.

Cons

No career or growth opportunity. It is always about serving client facing teams at any expense. Some people work insane hours, while some get promoted without lifting a finger. Some managers couldn't care less about their people as long as things get done. Stress levels are extreme and no one cares to minimize that.

Pros

Nice office, nice people. Ideal for people who are process oriented and like to do only one type of work. Great place for people who have the gift of gab.

Cons

There are many unhappy overworked employees practically slaving away under poor distracted management. Everyone is a number (literally) and an incompetent always absent HR often turns a blind eye to the abusive work style rather than try to mitigate it. Many good employees have either left or are being pushed out. Profits are the main focus. In general not an ideal place for people who want to help their clients, learn, or work collaboratively.

One that I do not wish to repeat, in a word dismal

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The staff is quite nice, unless of course we're talking about upper management.

Cons

Personal growth, non existent Pay rate, atrocious and far below industry standards Upper management and CEO are clueless as to how to run a business that could excel in the market place Upper management is "flighty", "disconnected" and has no clear sense of direction Sweat shop. They increased the companies work week by 5 hours, but no additional compensation was coming with that increased time The Managing Director promises things will get better but they do not Everyone is on eggshells waiting to be dismissed or laid off All in all, a very very unhappy place to live and work
