Pros

- They have a system to encourage you to learn new technologies. - There's a nice culture promoted by camaraderie among developers. - Somewhat competitive salary.

Cons

- Poor work/life balance. They say the care about your wellbeing but this isn't remotely true. You have to endure all the hardships imposed by the client, and if by any chance you decide to not work the "extra mile"... you will be perceived as lazy or uncooperative. - They make you believe they have a flat structure in their organization but in reality, there's a lot of hierarchy going on behind the scenes. If you do not satisfy certain people's criteria, there's a good chance you will end up being fired. - If you end up without project, they will put you in a "talent pool", if you end up not being attractive to their clients, do not expect lasting too much in the company.

Pros

Really flexible schedule and work environment for on-shore employees.

Cons

Its a conglomerate of small specialized consultancies acquired and merged over time. It was bought out by private equity in 2024 and taken off the public market. The new CEO is from Accenture. Salaries haven't gone up for over 2 years. Anyone who has been able to get one has it in the form of a 1-year retention bonus. In other words, you have to give it back if you leave before the years up. Up to 5 changes in direct supervisor in the past 6 months. Even if you have a good boss their advocacy means nothing for your career at the moment. With the new CEO and rebrand came a full tilt pivot into AI. The plan boils down to using AI to figure out the plan to become more profitable using AI. In theory, this is circular logic gen ai is ill equiped to handle. In execution, this leads to uncapped token usage with no guarantees of profit.
