An awful work environment and dishonest management

Pros

On some weeks fruit would be delivered to the break room. There were also some snacks and every once in a while lunch would be purchased. You may be lucky to work with a talented person or two before they inevitably leave or get fired abruptly. Oh, and race cars.

Cons

The only people that seem to stay for any length of time are either too inexperienced to have the same job elsewhere or are essentially stuck because of immigration status. The company basically stays afloat because of one contract while the rest of the customers are second tier and constantly have issues because there aren't resources to handle them. The sales team is constantly over promising while searching for "whale" contracts that the business is totally unprepared to handle. Aside from the ethical issues with the business, employee morale is low, facilities are inadequate, there are minimal benefits, and the company website is embarrassing.

Pros

Working at BestIT will give a good perspective on how low a company can sink as far as ethics are concerned. You may be asked to embellish a resume in order for sales to try to win a bid. In fact, your resume may even be in use after you've been laid off! You may also be asked to place some RSA secureID tokens in front of a webcam so your offshore counterparts can view them, certainly violating previous agreements with the customer and owner of the secureID tokens. You may be asked to move desks temporarily while a customer is on site, giving the illusion of an office full of employees. You may even be asked to write a positive Glassdoor review in order to push the truthful reviews off the front page.

Cons

After a short while you will realize you were lied during every step of the hiring process. Colleagues disappear frequently. The break room isn't always stocked. You'll start worrying if your paycheck will even arrive.

DO NOT WORK HERE. EVER.

Pros

If you don't mind doing things haphazardly or don't realize there is an industry standard and why, you might consider working here.

Cons

Leadership is convoluted and divergent when it isn't micro-managing. No idea how to run consulting services - and don't seem to care. Hires great talent then assigns tasks they are unqualified for and calls it failure. Hires great talent but disempowers them and won't let them do a great job because it is not inline with the vision.
