Pros
Many of the pro's on here reference free catered lunch. Bear in mind, this means you are not to leave during lunch. This means you are to get your lunch and return to your desk to work. Seemingly great 'perk' at first, but when you realize you don't have the choice, it becomes apparent the prison-like atmosphere they're cultivating.
Cons
When I left alliantgroup, I had visions of writing a scathing, tell-all review on here. I envisioned warning future applicants like I wished I'd been warned. Although it would have been very satisfying to rip the company up and down, I decided to hold off and allow myself time to reflect on my experience there and try to give as objective a review as possible. Fortunately, since then, various exposés have done much of that work for me. I would encourage any would-be applicant to find those and read up as no doubt alliantgroup has worked very hard to bury them. I encourage you, the individual researching this firm likely before an interview: take note that the positive reviews on here generally come from an internal push by leadership and HR to make the company look good. Typically, it's not a very good sign when you have left such a bad taste in current and former employee's mouths that you have to mandate positive reviews so that the recruiting team doesn't bang their heads against the wall trying to fill the revolving door of requisitions created by constant turnover. Management twists the story to make it seem as though the people who leave "didn't have what it took" or "weren't hungry enough" but truthfully, it comes down to this: the charm of this company wears off after ~3 months. Granted, if you don't value work-life balance, or maybe you're single and don't plan to have a family that you care to be around (describes many of the lifers at this company), maybe this company is for you. The time I spent at alliantgroup was characterized by a constant fear of being heckled, bullied, or embarrassed for amusement in front of my peers and leadership. There were truly countless late nights for training, additional work with questionable at best ROI, or just forced socializing with the team. The stress from this environment undoubtedly had adverse effects not only on my physical health but on my mental health and interpersonal relationships. To this day when I pass the building in Houston, I’m reminded of dreaded interactions with leadership where nothing was ever good enough for them. It was not uncommon for depression and anxiety to set in on Sunday nights knowing I had 5 more days to endure (at typically more than 12-15 hours a day). While I could go on at length, I’ll wrap with this: do your research. Don’t buy into the reviews propped up here by employees who’ve been drinking the Kool-Aid so long they’ve forgotten what a career is supposed to be. When they flash large sums of cash at you upon an offer, remember that you’re not actually making that much when you’re committing 70-80 hours a week to a job you will eventually loathe. And finally, ask yourself if you really want to join an environment that literally thousands of people have experienced and moved on from. Not because they weren’t good enough, not because they weren’t hungry enough, but because this company takes over your life. They ruin your perception of reality. They steal your precious time with friends and family. They regularly make you feel less than or inferior. And they do this with the brazenness of asking you to give more.
