Pros

There are no pros. Free lunch is good. Worst for anyone who has a proper job elsewhere. Only a few people in organization are good, but they do not have much power even when they have higher position in management.

Cons

Old Timers do too much politics. SFCC project is domincated by old timers who have been in company for more than 10 years. They will not listen to anyone. Very adamant people. These old timers talk very rudely. Even for going to washroom break, you will have to ping in skype group. It's like someone running a school. If you are not at your desk, they will search for you in entire company like mad men. It will be like the senior is paying your salary from his pocket. You may be away from your desk for just a few mins, but then the man hunt will begin immediately. Project Head is also supporting the old timers. He has more skills with politics than these senior people. In client meetings, he will say all random things to please clients. Avoid team parties. That free drinks and food in party is not worth it. Drunk managers will talk rubbish and waste your time. Also not safe. 0 Involvement of HR team. They dont care it seems.

Great work environment. Real commitment to diversity that goes beyond the surface level.

Pros

Great well known clients & interesting projects.

Cons

There are no growth opportunities; people managers don't know how to lead; there are layoffs every 2 months for the past 18 months; there is no training (employees are told to learn on their own time / weekends) because if they are not >50% chargeable, they are on the RIF list. The company grew through acquisitions but never integrated or unified the various companies. There are no standard processes, everything is ad hoc. There were no raises this year and no bonuses either of the last 2 years.
