Pros

High pay on 1099 and ability to travel.

Cons

No job security and no professionalism. CEO is a textbook narcissist who doesn't have the knowledge to back up the attitude, but he's a very slick talker. No in-depth hiring process in place (no professional HR - staffing agencies are used) and high pay can seem great until you are placed in a team with unqualified charlatans who will wreck the project. This is a gig that can ruin your professional reputation if you aren't careful. Agree with other reviewer that they will come into a client organization, drain the money and then leave. There are no employees (this is true) and there is no real intellectual property - anyone can set up a "firm" like this and hire people from LinkedIn to fill the slots. Potential clients should realize this and beware.

Pros

Firm focused on specific client needs, not billing in perpetuity Not a micromanaging culture Remote work set-up whenever it's feasible CEO open to new approaches and technology - on projects and within the organization Employees and independent contractors are seasoned, experienced professionals

Cons

Small firm with limited administrative support. If you're used to having 24/7 IT help teams, corporate travel agencies, or splashy annual company meetings, this may not be the best fit for you.
