Pros

Base compensation that is above average.

Cons

What happened in June? Why the flurry of fake reviews on how great the company is? Keep reading folks.

Poor Management, Severly Unhealthy Work Environment

Pros

Many kind and extremely talented employees.

Cons

This is a fear-driven workplace. Management is a joke. Gossip runs rampant. Management does not communicate directly, but rather gives silent treatment, talks behind employees' backs, and spreads horrid rumors. Does not provide direction, encouragement, benefits, educational or advancement opportunities, or trust. They would rather pick you apart and tear you down then admit mistakes and change direction. If you're job hunting, keep looking. You're better off.

Pros

Worked with some great professionals within the BU. Flexibility within the job...great work/life balance.

Cons

Employees are viewed and treated as a means to an end. That end was to grow the business with as many clients as possible as fast as possible. You will be expected to ignore established standards and compromise personal integrity to push clients through. No raises. Terrible benefits. 20th century tech. Bonus is a mystery.
