Pros

A wide variety of client companies enables the CSC employee to view different business models and technologies

Cons

Client contracts are staffed conservatively and new business acquisition lags, so any change in client funding usually results in a layoff situation. Ability to transfer to other accounts is limited. Remuneration is usually upper second quartile or low third quartile, so they are not too competative.

Pros

Good benefits including 401(k) with company match.

Cons

Unrealistic workload. The pay does not match the amount of stress that comes from the amount of work given. They are hiring new employees for the same role offering about $30k-$40k more than they pay those who have been there for years instead of compensating current employees fairly. Management is out of touch. They are so focused on numbers that they cannot clearly see the internal issues that are compromising relationships with customers.
