Pros

We are truly industry leaders in human capital and thought leadership. The willingness to commit resource is truly commendable and keeps us at the forefront.

Cons

It is a safe place to work allowing which may be nice, but it breeds complacency and an environment where some who excel and are risk takers leave for better recognition.

Pros

I'm not there anymore. Fair pay. Started out great.

Cons

Midway through a year-long contract I already started looking. It was an extremely boring place to work. This is the kind of place where you stay within your boundary. In other words, if you are an architect, you design diagrams all day. No hands-on work - even if you know what you're doing. I was even rebuked on several occasions for working with a developer to help him out. I was told I needed to tell him to ask someone else responsible for that. If you like to do hands on and you are an architect, you will hate it here.
