Pros

The individual contributors who work here are pretty awesome. They do have a mentorship program which is nice. Work/life balance can depend on the client project you're on, but mine is pretty good.

Cons

The pay is very low compared to industry standard and the health insurance plan is just average. CEO and other C-suite executives have very half-baked plans for growing the business. A capital investment firm invested in the company a couple years ago and since then it's been a fast track of layoffs & inconsistent plans and communication. They laid off several directors and senior managers, and now it feels like there is a gap between IC's and their management. Several people have voluntarily left too because they don't like the new leadership. Both an HR Director and the CFO have left in the past year, which is a bad sign. It has a very corporate sterile feel to the culture with new leadership. It used to be funner and more down-to-earth with the old CEO Sunny, but since the new CEO Rocky has taken over it has a boring vibe that lacks any personality.

Pros

They have been good to me. My manager was very good, I am contracted to a state organization to a good team. This is probably the best job I've ever had. I recommend them.

Cons

Honestly, I have no complaints.

Pros

Pay on the program I worked on was good. A few pockets of good teams at corporate (finance and hr)

Cons

The culture of the company changed drastically over the past 5 years to one that I can't support. Zero support from the C-Suite and no corporate reach back. Two months of no reply to consistent emails to the C-Suite for support. Years of escalations of issues on the program were met with silence as the money was flowing in. Once it stopped, they were shocked. Rewarding only yes men or yes women instead of those sacrificing for the contract. If you gossip to the C-Suite and don't question, you'll be rewarded. Even a high level senior leader made a considerable amount of money for years but literally lied about Financials and what work his team did. How does that happen?!
