Pros

- 3.0Mar 16, 2017IT Support SpecialistFormer Employee, more than 3 yearsTroy, AL
Pros
The projects are stable and the company does try and acquire new contracts. The members that you work with genuinely seem to want to help you succeed and I've made a lot of good friends during my time.
Cons
Very little career growth and it basically it breaks down to HR not wanting to help you and will become unresponsive. They'd rather hire someone new than move you to a different area. This might be a good place to start a career in IT but depending upon your project and satisfaction it might not be somewhere you stay for 20 years.

Poor project operations and management. they did lost alot business. Don't care much about learning and employees career growth
2 - 3.0Feb 12, 2011ConsultantCurrent EmployeeColumbus, OH
Pros
If you find the right manager and core project team and are lucky enough to stay on that project for a significant amount of time, growth and development potential is almost limitless If you are a hard worker you can get places Great benefits Self-help training site is good Outsourcing type project teams offer a great opportunity for growth and development
Cons
Not enough consistency among senior consultants on their ability or willingness to mentor There is no defined career path The training and mentoring of new college hires could be better Networking is the only way to grow in this company Staff augmentation type projects are a hindrance to your career growth as you will get lost and forgotten
- 5.0Mar 28, 2023Talent Acquisition ConsultantCurrent Employee, less than 1 yearDallas-Fort Worth
Pros
DEI opportunities LGBTQ+ safe company and received a 100% on the HRC checklist - not easy to do! BIPOC friendly organization Mentorship and Career Growth is put in the forefront. Invest into their employees. Benefits are fair and they have a great SPP, along with company matches. Awesome team members and leadership. Pay is great.
Cons
It gets confusing trying to find resources at times, as we have a lot of them in different places. Sometimes it feels like finding one-on-one help or assistance is a bit difficult, but it isn't impossible. Wish the open positions that employees can move into were broadcasted more for internal hiring.
- 2.0Oct 11, 2015Lead AnalystCurrent Employee, more than 3 yearsBengaluru
Pros
1. Work from home policy 2. Flexibility 3. Fun at work activities are organised at regular intervals.
Cons
1. If you are in this company in one project since starting then you will got promotions, but if you are lateral hire then don't expect any promotions or good hike for next 4 years just to adjust the lateral hike they have given you. 2. No onsite opportunities, and if some one gets it then only for 1-2 months. 3. Career growth is less, people with 10+ experience are in this company since they won't get job outside now after doing repetitive work. 4. Appraisal process is not transparent, if you fight you are fired. 5. If you are happy with less hike and compromise with career growth then best company to retire.
