      Pros

      HR department is working very hard and responsive. All administrative teams are friendly and helpful.

      Cons

      Antisocial environment, low paid; Too much micromanagement and unfeasible goals from the manager. Re-prioritizing tasks every day!

      Pros

      My team members are nice and willing to help. Have not worked on any projects yet, but so far so good. I have anticipated that the projects mainly involve data cleaning so I won't complain.

      Cons

      Salary is not attractive so as the benefits. Different group has different style. Some people can work very late.

      Pros

      There are absolutely no pros for working there.

      Cons

      Management is an absolute joke, there is no company culture, salary was far below market and no opportunity for growth. Everything you don't want in a company. If you're reading all of the other bad reviews and wondering... are these true? the answer is yes. STAY AWAY

      We obviously missed the mark here, and for that we are sorry, but we will not let this opinion dissuade our ongoing commitment to ensure a mutually beneficial culture and work environment. Our people help take care of us and our clients; we take care of our people.
