      No place for Experienced Career Professionals, it is run by TCS and Grads straight out of school

      Senior project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The ability to work remotely.

      Cons

      There is no training in place to educate new hires, you are basically thrown into projects and expected to keep up This company has one of the most insecure/short sighted managers, nobody is capable of looking at the Big Picture and motivate the team, most of them lead teams with a culture of fear. Senior Mgmt has the same team from 10 -15 years and they get to play musical chairs, no room for anyone else. The experienced folks in this company are holding this company afloat until the new grads take over and more work is outsourced to TCS

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great employees. Hard working employees keep the company going dispite poor management.

      Cons

      Poor Senior Management. COO airplane landed in India and he acted like an ugly American when a car was not on the tarmack to drive him to his hotel. Felt it was beneath him to have to go through security.

      six sigma to death

      Director
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      has presence in data, technology, media. depending on groups and projects you can learn quite a bit. work hours are sane

      Cons

      dinosaurs at VP and some SVP levels who have been with the company for 110, 15, 20 years but have no evolved their skills or understanding, they jump on the 'hot' projects to make themselves seem relevant but as they fail, they undermine the project rather than admit they were wrong. People who dare question are put in conditions that either they leave right away or know they are set up for failure and leave eventually
