The people - it was like having a 2nd family. We worked hard, but also socialized. Job and learning opportunities - I learned something new with every engagement and was able to attend training and conference to learn even more. Growth / advancement - I was able to move around and up in the organization. Opportunities to travel - I worked in many locations, including London.
Cons
salaries seemed lower than similar businesses.

Pros
There are many pros but this is my first venture into corporate consulting. I have been treated very well by all CTG employees on and off project. There is a great balance between work and home life. The pay and benefits are exceptional. The corporate credit card to cover expenses was a huge bonus for me not to worry about fronting my travel expenses which many other firms do. Ctg offers a huge repository of learning materials through their intranet learning center. The hours and expense sheet tracking is very easy to use.
Cons
I am under a year but haven't seen many cons to speak of. One would say there isn't much on the job help or training assistance, but you shouldn't be consulting if you need training yourself.

Pros
Company administration is good in response to any immediate needs to be taken care off.
Cons
They do not care about employee's wellness, future career planning, No training programs, once any assignment is finished with any of their client they do not try to look for keeping the employee for longtime. There is no employee employer relationship at all.

Pros
The training at the entry level was outstanding. They had small projects, that required many of the common programming techniques. If one knows anything about programming the training would get you ready. Training was also available when I determined that additional skills were required.
Cons
My first client treated me like a team member from the start, but when I transferred to a corporate office I was treated as an outsider.

Pros
Mostly casual environment Clients present interesting work opportunities Great hardware support and local IT (workstations, servers, etc) Much of the work is easy once you understand the proprietary system Many employees have stayed employed here for 15+ years Small team feel but part of a large corporation Opportunity to travel and see your software running in the field is fulfilling
Cons
Extremely conservative and old fashioned (waterfall, preference for paper over computers) Senior members actively resist new technology and software practices Project management has been a weakness for years and is not improving Staffing company mentality, history of no severance and no warning dismissals Corporate IT presents many challenges and painful restrictions, lacks focus on productivity and customer success Career advancement is almost non-existent as the goal is to keep people in the same positions forever and avoid re-training costs Management does not participate in career advancement coaching or mentoring Promises from management are often never realized All testing is manual and management is opposed to automated testing Testing and development work is often extremely repetitive Culture of 'work harder, not smarter' Technical achievements often not recognized, working late doing repetitive tasks rewarded and celebrated Office environment could be a lot cleaner Often asked to work nights and weekends with no compensation (occasional pizza at best)
