Pros

The office facilities in Hopkins are nice, if you haven't been outsourced.

Cons

Whoever decided to replace 2000+ knowledgable IT employees with incompetent, non-English speaking TCS employees needs to be fired. The leadership does not care about employees or work/life balance anymore. The motto is "Do more" do there is a lot of pressure for the employees still there, who have to deal with all the idiots that are new. Also, salaries are not competitive by any means and they no longer offer competitive benefit plans either.

Pros

Pay is good, especially on holidays! you get days off during the week and you work every other weekend

Cons

The schedule is hard, 12 hour days for 1 month then 12 hour nights then switch back. the environment is tough, the work load is heavy. not always the support you need to help you. favoritism, Management can be difficult, sink or swim type of culture, The testing is nearly impossible to get through. In the end you can do a great job in learning the job, if they don't want you, you will be replaced!
