Pros

The incentive pay (bonus) program was a great motivation to work hard and deliver on time/on budget. A lot of opportunity for professional growth through training programs.

Cons

If job advancement or job title is important to you, then this is not the place for you. You can advance quickly to level 30 (job titles such as: project manager, senior consultant) then stay at that level for the rest of your career. If you do not come into the company as an officer, it is very rare that to be promote to director, AVP or VP. IT jobs are 24/7 and you can expect to work many weekends throughout the year.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
