Pros

Numerous client and career development opportunities given proper timing and some amount of luck. Pay seems to be at or above average. Access to leading technologies.

Cons

Offshoring! Significant shift of work from onshore in the US to India. Many have been and are being laid off due to offshoring to India and there's a lack of onshore opportunities to transfer to. Feedback from multiple CSC-India staff is that they don't respect the management over there. CSC says they value their employees. However, there's a general lack of concern and support to help transition people to new jobs within the company when their current job is being offshored/eliminated.

Pros

An employee is only limited by their personal level of commitment to grow and learn. This is not a company for someone who wants to be "led" into professional development. You get what you put into it!

Cons

CSC is working to correct those areas that have been ignored - global collaboration, more customer satisfaction driven, creative and compassionate.

Pros

CSC has interesting opportunities for lateral movement, and in some cases, advancement, but you have to be very diligent in searching these out and spending a lot of time pursuing them. CSC is very "good old boy" network in approach, and if you don't know people, or don't play the political game, it won't matter how good you are, you'll get passed over. This is a plus if you're willing to spend a lot of time trying to get at these opportunities, especially on your own time since work hours seldom allows you the leisure to do this.

Cons

Senior Leadership focuses solely on budget issues and they're always in emergency mode, trying to find money even after whittling down the budgets to their minimum. You can be dealing with an outage or other emergency and they'll still expect you to dial into hour long calls trying to find money that senior management wants found. Client satisfaction falls by the wayside while this is going on, and then they'll wonder why accounts are lost and client satisfaction is low. At this point the blame will be on you for not being able to be in 4 different places at once. Travel & Training are the first things to go in the budget, so forget about being trained. Downsizing is a periodic event, as there's no other place left to find budget dollars. This turns into a vicious circle as performance falls each time the exercise is run.
