Pros

You get on the job experience, but as a caveat as explained in the cons

Cons

- Training or lack thereof is severely lacking. They do not have a proper lesson plan during onboarding and you are often left to fend for yourselves. Once you are in a project, the BAs or project managers are too busy to train you as well on their software as well. -They say you can choose your specialisation, but that is false. It depends on business needs most of the time. - Leadership turnover is high, so it is hard to follow when leaders change every few months - Salary is subpar compared to industry standards, and the hours are bad - Being overreliant on foreign developers has caused multiple issues in the project and hinders progress -not much growth opportunities after the grad program

Pros

Company provides training on soft skills and technical skills prior to placing on a project.

Cons

Client contracts can end unexpectedly so you may not get to work on a project long term and change from project to project.

Pros

there are no pros for this company

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
