Pros

Good payroll processing system, Pay on time bi-weekly, HR lady responds quickly on your questions

Cons

No Job security, As their business is only on IT consulting, their only way to reduce cost is laying off people once the project is over. Most of the projects are short term. Risk for people who are on H1, they have to find an employer who transfers visa immediately and loose green card processing. They do not release the immigration related documents to employees like the I-140 approval copy on green card processing. Not much client pool to place people on projects. They offer 401K plan after completion of one year, but there will be no contribution from company on 401K. They reduce salary if the employee is on bench. They take a signed agreement from employee to agree to pay the damages amount if employee resigns during bench period. Marketing people say that the project is long term even though the project is only for 3 months. Some fake reviews were posted by internal people to hide bad things about the company.

They are blatantly sexist

Pros

They do try to bring the company together for Pirates games, picnics, etc

Cons

Blatant sexism. Ever wonder why 75% of the company is male? Women are underpaid and not treated with respect. I've seen it firsthand when male developers were interviewing a female developer. Also terrible benefits. Health insurance for a family is extremely expensive and the 401(k) "match" is a joke. 1/4 of 1%

We are sorry that this was your perception, but we want to let you know that sexism has never and will never have a place at CEI. We do not condone sexism of any kind and have never accepted this behavior as part of our corporate culture. We believe in treating all of our employees equally. We are proud to have female employees in all parts of the company, including in executive leadership.
