Pros

I had the fortune to have good managers and team leads during my time there.

Cons

They are using antiquated technology and business practices. If you remain here, your skills will be out of date making it difficult to move on. If you have the misfortune to end up on a client project, you will find yourself working like a dog for a promised bonus that never comes. The projects I worked on were horribly managed. Upper management overpromises to the customer regarding timelines and agrees to deadlines which aren't feasible. To make up they just throw bodies at the project and hope for the best. The turnover rate is very high. At one point they contracted an outside company to perform employee satisfaction surveys. They received negative feedback concerning low pay as well as the inflexible inclement weather policies among other things. Instead of taking that feedback and making changes, the CEO sent out an email to the entire company highlighting the negative feedback and giving justification for why policies are the way the are and will not be changed. Seriously?? There is no flexibility to work from home during emergencies or bad weather. They either make you risk your life driving to work on icy roads or require you to take PTO. The pay is decent for someone just graduating university but well below market for an experienced professional. Don't work here unless it is your last option.
