Cons
For project manager/implementation consultant position only: -- Job doesn't involve any "project management" until months or a year in -- Young, straight out of college workforce, can be immature -- Poor work-life balance, rarely work 90+ hour weeks -- Extensive travel, possibly on weekends -- High turnover, most work for > 2 years, many 1 year or less -- Ranking system for implementation services is arbitrary -- Customer "hand holding" at a ridiculous level -- Internal documentation of recommendations and examples of past experience very lacking -- Internal documentation of application level items vary by team from poor to good -- Unrealistically high expectations in some cases -- Required to work within 45 minutes of Madison, WI (location may be an issue for some) -- "Non-hierarchy" is non-existant -- Lack of clinically trained employees -- Poor trainining in management/business, most employees not trained in this at all before starting
