      Cons

      Bad management of most of the projects Doesn't know how to effectively utilize a resource and working time Some teams have no work some teams are having hectic work More consultants are hired without proper training Ex UST people still expects others employees to work in a client based mentality (slave like for some) These same people are afraid of losing their job if they transfer their knowledge to new joiners Most of the projects are running without a vision for the future.

      Pros

      Flexible availability. Path for promotion is obvious and quantified.

      Cons

      Bonus/commission it is based on level and sales so is low in states without a state tax form. Hourly wage comes out of bonus. Pressure to sell items that don't add to your commission. They push customer surveys but you can be penalized if someone complains about the company, price, amount of emails etc even though you have no control. Some employees are frustratingly low quality and you will spend time helping or fixing their mistakes time that works against your commission. You are expected to answer phones, make appointments, scan, print, take money, help new comers all while maximizing returns. If you take over someone's client and find a mistake you are expected to work against your commission to file amendments peace of mind claims etc.
