Pros

I love the technical people at LiquidHub. Lots of great talent. Some of the best people in the Philly region. Nationally recognized experts in some cases.

Cons

The problem was two fold. 1) All that talent was also busy on site generating revenue for the company so it was tough to pick their brains. and 2) The overall strategy of the company seems to be to eventually have all of the workers be off shore and only some of the brain trust in Con-US. It should tell you something when the company wins an outsourcing award in India. In this regard, I didn't fit in because I don't trust off shore talent as far as I can throw them. It is not anything racial or any cultural bias. It's all about the experiences that I have had. I have had great on-prem experiences with Indian talent while working at MBNA, but not so with off-shore talent. They lack discipline, loyalty and a commitment to a quality product.

Pros

- Decent salary and benefits, although LH makes a bundle on the billable hours margins. Depending on who you work for, the schedule is fairly flexible. - The quarterly hours bonus is a nice perk. - The employees appear to be well qualified with strong experience and are generally helpful and professional. I didn't notice a cut throat environment at all.

Cons

- They don't know whether they are a staffing company or a management consulting company. Business Development and Sales are completely disconnected from the practice partners and managing directors. - If you are on a project and billing, you are okay for as long as you are billing. However, you have no control or visibility into the viability of the contract with the customer. If the customer cuts the contract, you are on the bench and sent wherever you are told....or you are walked out the door with 2 weeks' severance. You have no control over your destiny there, and you have no choice over which clients you serve (or where those clients are located). - As a professional, you are better off contracting as an independent contractor or corp to corp with LiquidHub or another staffing agency, rather than trying to grow your career with LiquidHub. LiquidHub doesn't want employees looking to grow their careers and become leaders. It wants billable hours and a high margin on those billable hours That's all.
