Pros

I have been at SolutionStream over a year now. This is a well run consulting firm with over 100 senior level software engineers. A few of the culture events that they provide: Monthly Birthday BBQ Annual Lagoon Day for all immediate family (> 450 ppl) Crazy gift give away during the holidays, this is the time the company really goes all out to show it's thanks to their employees based on the amount of time you have been there. I think they gave over 20 big screen TV's alone! Holiday party for employee and significant other, typically in January after the craziness is over. Periodic Halo/game nights, where all the Big screen TV's in different rooms are linked and the battle begins. The facility is kept up and nice, they are currently out of space and looking for a building to add in downtown salt lake. You get paid for all the hours you work. They are honest

Cons

This is a pure consulting company, their is a chance that you will be put on an account that is not the most enjoyable and they might be quite critical and demanding. The good part is that it won't last forever, a new account is always around the corner.

Pros

You get some flexibility as to what type of projects you work with and you get a lot of experience seeing how other companies work. There are a lot of pretty talented people working here and they make an effort to support the education of their employees (while not often that successful at it. Have company events that can be fun and give away some gifts and such based on company loyalty.

Cons

They are a Contract based company so any expenses they have go directly to the bottom line. The result is them being a little cheap on a lot of things. They like to say they are super supportive of education and helping their employees succeed but they nickle and dime everything. They have really old computers that they give out. (Some are new now) but it always feels like they are trying to keep costs down. Which is good to an extent, but as an employee makes you feel like you are just a way to generate money. Even if that is true, nobody likes feeling like that. I don't plan on staying here super long, however I see it as a good stepping stone to a better company.
