Pros

-The trainers are professional and very nice, especially for the business trainer. He is very knowledgeable and is very patient to teach the trainees. All of them are very approachable. -The HRs are quite friendly too. They show a good attitude when someone requested to leave in the past. -The training is useful if you do not have exposure to the subjects before. However, if you have experience in the subject, it is pretty boring as you can finish the task ahead of schedule and doing nothing for the rest of the time. -The career path and the compensation are quite clear in terms of the salary increment. -The working hour is relatively short.

Cons

-The pantry is way too small, especially when so many consultants return from the client site. -You basically do not have a choice to choose what company or role that you have to work for. Besides, you have to fight for the role by taking the initiative to approach the sales team and compete against all you fellow consultants.

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Cons

They will promise you opportunities that don't exist. The company they contract you to will promise you work that you will not be assigned. I was a Java Consultant with a masters degree in Math and certificate in full stack and I was shoved into a manual testing position that required zero coding and constantly dangled automation in front of my face. When I was asked to look at Selenium, I studied it in some of the copious amounts of downtime i had and was reprimanded during the next meeting for 'wasting company time'. I moved from Texas to New Jersey for my first position. After contracts with the company were terminated, I was pulled off my assignment only to be abruptly fired for "lack of geoflexibility" despite willingness to move to several places they do business including NYC and even Denver. There is no accountability from them as the only response they give is "the decision is final". There is no way to appeal a blatant lie. Their company has no integrity and side with business majors over people that know how chemicals and physics and electrical components work just seem like bad life decisions. They will say you can reapply but they won't hire you. They'd full of it at every angle.
