      Pros

      -Emphasis and investment on employee learning and development -Flexible work arrangements

      Cons

      1. A conservative mindset that underpins everything they do, leading to tight budgets everywhere, and sensitive, insecure employees who fear getting outshone when someone else comes in and does a better job. 2. They try to hire for as cheap as possible but still have the audacity to charge clients big time. 3. Very biased in favour of engineers, in terms of referral programs and financial support for certification/further education. 4. They frown upon people trying to champion themselves. People tend to need to pull rank in order to get others moving, if you are an individual contributor who isn't from the CIS region and leading a project, expect things to move really slowly. 5. Only started a DEI department in recent 2 years, people there aren't really ready to talk about sensitive topics like LGBTQ. 6. They've lost huge business in 2023, and some of their best salespersons left, and many have been let go or quit before they were hit. 7. People are often based out at client offices, most of us feel very disengaged from the company itself.

      Pros

      Amazing team—very collaborative, supportive, and welcoming from day one. Strong leadership, my manager is incredibly supportive and gives you autonomy to take ownership and bring new ideas forward. There is a well-structured environment—processes are clear, well explained and continuously improving. Great opportunities to learn; many trainings and tools available to support professional growth. People genuinely care about each other and create a positive work environment.

      Cons

      In some cases, coordination across teams can take extra time

      Pros

      You get exposure to the very latest technology, and the company is implementing it in impactful, real-world ways. Even if you're not in a tech role, you naturally build deeper understanding in the latest technologies that you may never get exposure to at other companies. Truly global. Even for employees not in global roles, you still get good visibility into the company's global scale and impact.

      Cons

      Too much process around approvals which reduces speed of execution. Asked to step-up but then insufficient support provided. Two-faced behaviors of managers has become acceptable.
