Business Outlook

Pros

There are lots of work from home oportunities which balance out the rather aggressive travel. Departments such at HR, IT, Legal, ETC. are very structured and stable.

Cons

Focus and direction seem to have been falling into a tailspin over the past 18 months. I understand that a merging company has growing pains - but it's been well over a year now - get your act together. It is very clear that management doesn't value employees much. Benefits have been drasticaly eroded. This company currently has no idea who it is, what is values are, or what its focus is.

Business Outlook

Pros

Provides Flexible Schedules, Consultants support one another. Professional Services is the best organization within the company to work for

Cons

Only out to make a profit for Private Investors and are leaving employee satisfaction to hemorrhage HR is the puppet of the CEO and Private Investors and have no idea what the employee base needs. Leaders are not capable of understanding how remote employees work and make the process difficult. No raises in over a year, reductions in 401K, and huge increase in health insurance
