Pros

There finally seems to be some stability with management. You get a foot in the door for a way out

Cons

You have multiple managers that do not know what you do on a day-to-day basis and managers on site that actually dictate your day-to-day with very little oversight between the two. Training is minimal and only allowed if a business case arises. Attrition is at an all time high with entire departments losing staff because they are not happy Pay is drastically below industry standards There is oppression from offsite management - calling you on your time off or asking for things that are not "ordinary" There is no culture or morale boosters The processes and demands are changing drastically with little notification if any No compensation for gas mileage if using own car Everyone that starts realizes the above and is looking to leave The benefits are really bad. High deductible insurance. It’s touted that they pay your medical for you. But you’ll be paying all year to reach that high deductible. It’s not a real benefit. Dental and vision are on par with other companies.

Pros

You get a lot of autonomy in dealing with the client. There is very little second guessing of how a deliverable should be crafted for the client. The cash compensation was good. Whenever your saw the senior management face to face, they were personable and friendly.

Cons

There are times when you want hands-on management - like for an annual performance review and salary review. I was there 5 years and it never happened to me. I have no idea if they followed a formal process for promotions; if they did, it was not apparent to the rank and file. The culture seemed to be "out of sight, out of mind"; ironically, the more one was out of the office making money for the company, the less valuable one was perceived because you were not seen.
