Pros

- 100% bench time, you get paid and not having to do any work - 0% utilization is fine - Many colleagues have not been staffed since coming on-board last summer

Cons

- No people development - VERY Political - No real training, the management will tell you to crack exams by studying cheat-sheets - Billing as much as possible and work as little as possible - You have no say in career direction - Staffing wrong people at the wrong place - Recruits anyone with a remote experience in IT and project management - VP and leads do unethical things to bill more - Below average salary and bonus - Bad 401k matching - Little holiday - High turnover rate (~25%) - Everyone that came on-board and everyone I know at the company thinks of leaving at some point - Politics: Everyone holds secret agenda

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
