Pros

Great work life balance. 360 process is very fair and allows for a wide variety of input on performance reviews. Senior management seems to be in touch and adapts well to changes in the market.

Cons

Has similar problems that any organization its size has. Thought the company promotes moving around, it is easier said than done. A lot of staff augmentation instead of true consulting work.

Pros

Really smart technical people with reasonable technical management to Level 4 (Senior Associate). Reasonable benefits and pay. Promotion within technical slots good up to associate level, but nearly impossible above that.

Cons

Once you get above level 4, management becomes arrogant and self-isolating. Working for a body shop that management doesn't seem unaware is a body shop. Poor support for administrative functions. If you're looking for promotion, work/life balance is a joke. No technical track for advancement above level 3 (Associate), which seems odd for a company run by an engineer,
