Consultants can make good $$$ here - Consultant Mactus Group Employee Review

I have worked for Mactus Group as a vendor at Microsoft years. Mactus Group have always had positive goals and made efforts to help me improve as a candidate and a professional. I recommend this company as an employer over the 3 other agencies I have worked for.

Not enough technical roles are available - focus seems to be marketing and BI

management is generally nice, smart co-workers, reasonable salaries, access to some good teams within Microsoft, gifts around the holiday.,

1) Follow-on engagements: Mactus needs to work more proactively and systematically to find follow-on engagements prior to the end of your current engagement. In my case, it was clear that little effort had been made to identify follow-on opportunities. 2) Vacation: a clause in the Mactus employment contract states that if you don't take accrued vacation before the end of an engagement, you will lose any earned vacation days. In my case, the workload was so heavy I had no time for vacation during the assignment..I argued my case with management on this issue and was 'given' a few days of earned vacation at the end of an engagement, with the message that management was doing me a 'favor'. 3) Pay for work done: your contract also states that if the client doesn't pay Mactus for your work, you will in turn not be paid--even if (as was the case with me) you did the work on time, and the client acknowledged that the work was of high quality.
