Pros

I took full advantage of the onsite gym and social clubs. The benefits were pretty good.

Cons

My department had no where to sit for the last two months I was there. We were in the consultant hotelling stations permanently. I was a trainer and recieved almost no training in the software. I didn't have a computer for the first three weeks. Management has no time or inclination to asses their employees for training. No one is interested in the work going on. Managers have to perform the duties of employees because no one is trained.
