Pros

CSC has a lot of Growth opportunities, with plenty of head room. You have the ability to work in a consulting environment, within the secure confines of a large federally focused system integrator. Managers are fair, and strive to provide a reasonable work life balance. Excellent educational reimbursement program - $15K towards grad school per year, compared to $5K for Booz and other competitors.

Cons

There are plenty of silos. Departments are often territorial, and rarely collaborative. Management sometimes tends to get caught up in the past. CSC has traditionally been down in the trenches, pulling cables and connecting servers. Therefore it's consulting offering does not share the same brand equity as competitors, like Accenture, IBM and Booz.

Pros

Interesting projects for entry level consultants and new Associates have good access to training. CSC offers a variety of interesting projects in a number of different inudstries.

Cons

Salaries and "company name" are not competitive with better known consulting companies. CSC doesn't not have a very strong corporate structure. Junior level resources act like it is "us against them" when dealing with senior leadership. Senior leadership is missing an opportunity to distinguish CSC as a leader in business consulting.
