Pros

Safe job since they do lots of work within Public Sector which their leading in. The people are nice but quite corporate. Offer grad/apprentice programme.

Cons

Career progression is not good for degree apprentices or grads because they will put you on one project sometimes doing roughly the same thing for 6 months plus. Their isn't enough investment into grads or apprentice technical training required for project work if your not a naturally techie before joining them. You can't expect a developer on a project to teach an apprentice or grad how to code in C# or JS. Loyalty is not rewarded financially with market rate salaries. Lots of penny pinching i.e no remote contracts offered and no complementary drinks/food in the offices for staff. No bonus structure for groups financial performance. Those with a end of year rating of 1 vs someone 3 have marginal difference in pay increase but the requirement to get a 1 is exponentially higher than a 3. If your out performing your peers at higher grades that's not reflected in pay and grade due to red tape around highieracy. You can be A6 who's been in the company since starting at A1 but if they recruit another A6 they will be earning significantly more than you at times even by 40% plus. Once you leave you realise a lot of people you worked with are not genuine as they end up ghosting you on LinkedIn compared to when you worked with them in the same company.

Pros

Company provides training on soft skills and technical skills prior to placing on a project.

Cons

Client contracts can end unexpectedly so you may not get to work on a project long term and change from project to project.

Pros

there are no pros for this company

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
