Pros

Casual Dress.. that is all

Cons

They act like "casual dress" is a benefit.. instead of actually paying their employees what they are worth. This company was a lot better before it was acquired. If you were a minute later for work god forbid you would get reprimanded, I felt like I was a child. They actually tried to take away all remote work before the pandemic hit.. and after they would constantly monitor your activity. They have no trust in their employees and try to squeeze everything out of you.

Pros

Good breadth of offerings in the staffing world and some boutique consulting services, although they have recently carved off some businesses and that is making them more niche again.

Cons

Constant turnover at the top levels. They have lost at least 2 CEOs (without any public notice) and there's been a lot of talent loss and role-shifting at the VP levels and above. They have radically changed comp plans within the Sales teams, and it's caused them to lose a lot of their A players. Cost-cutting seems to be the driver. Honestly, I'm not sure what their strategy is anymore. They seemed to have a "plan" when I was there, but they've become just another staffing company in my mind.
