Another slimmy contract agency - Software Engineer Pactera Employee Review

Thank your for your candid feedback. I am glad to hear that your first assignment was an enjoyable role and provided a rewarding work environment. While I don't know the details of your specific work situation, many times our teams are required to quickly reallocated resources based on the ebbs and flows of business requirements. The management team does the best they can do with the resources we currently have available. In many cases there is a perfect fit based on skills and compensation. In other cases the fit is not always perfect but the management team wants to try to utilize the team available and keep the resources assigned to billable work. This is especially true if they feel the resources can "step up" to the assignment.  This may inadvertently create a situation like the one you described. As a rapidly growing organization many times we ask people to take on additional roles and it takes some time for compensation/career levels to equalize. I hope you utilized some of the channels available to you to discuss your skills, compensation and future career path with the leadership team and HR.
