Pros

Like at any company, I got to work with some nice people. I'm really reaching here, but...casual dress code. Opportunity to work from home when you need it (depending on your position, but they were pretty flexible about your hours as long as you were getting your job done). You get to work closely with leadership. This job wasn't a fit for me, but I did enjoy being challenged every day. Don't take this job if you can't handle hard work.

Cons

This was genuinely the most miserable and confusing job I have ever had. Low pay and long hours, but they expect you to be excited about the position for the "career growth potential" despite the fact that they seem to have a problem holding on to employees. No work life balance, and they seem to think this is cool/a good thing. Lame downtown office with no parking or perks. I don't know what else to say - but the Austin job market is filled with so many better opportunities. I wouldn't consider this company unless you're desperate. Reader, keep in mind that this review is based on my experience a year ago. So it's possible they have improved in some ways.

Pros

They strive to cultivate talent and work hard to vet potential hires to make sure this is the best fit for everyone. You aren't pigeon-holed into a particular role. If a different position is available, and you show aptitude, then you will be considered for it.

Cons

Like most startup environments there is a lot of trial and error. You must be able to embrace ambiguity, or you will not enjoy the work. Change is your friend.

Smart and Scrappy Start-Up

Pros

The bar for getting to be a part of the CSC team is high, so you're surrounded by very smart and driven people - AND they're fun to be around. The team is only focused on what matters, which means there's no drama or politics - either you can deliver or you're let go quickly. Casual dress code is a huge plus. As a recruiter, building out a start-up of this size means your successes are very tangible. AND those successes are rewarded monetarily. Good ideas come from everywhere and CSC is a company that thoroughly acknowledges this. Even though the hours may be long, there's flexibility. So early birds and midnight owls are all welcome.

Cons

There are long hours, but I wasn't expecting anything different. It's very much a start-up so there's room for improvement when it comes to training/on-boarding, but efforts are certainly being made. As others have mentioned, benefits are good not great.
