MicroStrategy – “Truly worst experience ever.”
Pros
good benefits
travel job- if you love to travel
Cons
worst management ever( no respect for the consultants, many examples of very poor management:
1. Consulting head ridiculed a consultant on mic in front of a consultants gathering in vegas.
2. Sr. managers have no clue on many things regarding the workings of the company
3. You hardly have any say in your quaterly reviews. Managers will write comments on your review and you have no way to comment on that. Only option is to acknowledge or else you don't get the petty bonus you made.
4. Bonus structure is designed in a way that you hardly make only 5 -10% of you bonus .
5. No 360 degree reviews you basically have zero say and have to agree to your managers.
6. No credit for extra effort you put in on weekends or after office hours.
7. Zero skill development for the consultants. You are expected to know everything right at the beginning. This is funny because when they hire HR says you are not expected to know everything.
Advice to Senior Management
Most are hardly management material. They should be trainned and given examples from other conultancy companies. Even Indian consultancies have better managers :D
