Pros

- They trust us to act independently based on our own expertise and strengths - They provide clear and constructive, forward focused communication - There is always opportunity for learning new things due to the ever changing projects, and wide range of expertise/backgrounds that surround you - While there is an appropriate sense of professionalism, there is also a sense of community among the team regardless of position leading to a sum-is-greater-than-the-parts effect on teams - Flexibility with "Real life" responsibilities as a give and take as long as work is completed to the highest standards for clients

Cons

- Can sometimes be blurry or lower-structured communication or project layout due to complexity of said project, and potential need for quick adjustments as more is learned - As with any consulting, the level of stress within a project can vary with the "uncontrollable" e.g. recruiting, client interactions - Requires OCCASIONAL past 5 work when fielding to ensure positive recruiting results, but again this in my opinion is balanced by the flexibility mentioned above.

Pros

Very friendly and engaged coworkers, with many opportunities to work on a wide range of projects in various industries.

Cons

Smaller company, so you may need to work on things you'd expect to be outside of your job description.

Pros

Pretty decent pay for software consulting. Pockets of the company have fun people and culture.

Cons

Benefits are largely underwhelming. Lots of middle managers that tamper and gatekeep client access and are very worried about who gets credit. Ultimately yes men to the client versus standing by their people for hard conversations and recommendations. It masks itself but largely another staff augmentation group that runs on the billables with a lot of leadership and management mooching hours.
