Pros

People are great though many of the best leave quickly. Compensation is reasonable. Benefits are good, especially vacation though most people don't have time to use it.

Cons

The CIO is a misogynist. Worst case of sexism I have ever witnessed. The Executive team makes decisions based on egos to the detriment of the company. Comoany is setup as a body shop, there is no employee development. Employees are assigned to projects whether they are qualified or not. If no project is immediately available they are layed off. Attrition is terrible. Kool-Aid is plentiful.

Pros

I can't think of any particular reason I would EVER recommend this place to anybody. It's awful.

Cons

The micromanaging CTO is a narcissist and absolutely refuses to listen to anything anybody says. When his ideas fail (and they almost always do) he'll blame the staff who tried to prevent take the correct path. I wouldn't hire him as a junior developer, let alone the CTO. Seriously the worst I've ever worked with.

Pros

- Great people and collaboration.

Cons

- Little vision at the senior leadership level. - Always encouraged to bill out maximum hours (even if you complete the project early and could save the client money). - Say one thing verbally but do another/the opposite.
