Pros

-Paid for certifications -Had a good manager who made sure everything was going well and would follow-up on any issues I had. Not everyone is so lucky. -Good salary -Lots of opportunities for training & group get togethers -Pretty clear path to advancement -I find I work less overtime as a consultant because the client companies don't want to have to pay for more time than was contracted for, so better work/life balance.

Cons

-Internally disorganized - when something goes wrong it's difficult to figure out who to go to to get things fixed. -Bench not streamlined - they will give you some time to wait for a good assignment, but if they don't have something that fits you they will put you wherever you can be billable, no matter if it fits your career goals or is just completely dull. Pretty much like any other consulting firm in that respect. -The bonus they offer (over so many hours in a quarter is bonus pay) is pretty much not possible to get unless you are working a lot of overtime - vacation days count against it. I preferred when I worked for a consulting company that paid it's full time employees hourly - I was more likely to work overtime, if allowed by the client. -No tuition reimbursement, no 401k match

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.
