Pros

This is a respected firm that keeps well-paying clients year after year and serves them well.

Cons

Employee management is a use 'em up and replace 'em style. This company drives its employees like they're rented mules: productivity expectations rise every year, making it impossible to feel successful at E Source. I'd reinforce what other reviewers have said about management's fear of new ideas. So, if you do sneak a new idea past them, you get suspicion, not recognition.

Pros

The people who are directly involved with project work are smart and passionate. Project work is interesting and feels meaningful

Cons

C-suite leadership is hyper-focused on profits. I worry this will lead to higher turnover, lower work quality, and less happy clients over time. C-suite leadership also seems to make decisions in a vacuum without consulting the teams who are actually impacted by those decisions There is limited investment in employees and our professional growth. Clunky systems, unclear expectations, and poor communication between departments. Limited to no investment in culture, employee well-being, or team cohesion
