Pros

Most locations allow one day work from home.

Cons

Only care about the bottom line, which means low salaries, lots of contractors (that don't become FTE's) and frequent layoffs. It is a frequent occurance to have a (big) layoff and then due to too much trimming, a year or two later bringing back some formerly laid off ee's at a super reduction in salary. So if you stay at ESI for any length of time, do well and are rewarded for it - you could easily become a target for the next round of layoffs.

Pros

Overall the company is a good company to work for. My experience after working there over 6 years, never encountered any problems with management. Good people to have as colleagues.

Cons

Layoffs in the masses. No words to express the stress level after seeing department after department being cut back or walked out.

Pros

Challenging work environment allows for continued growth. Never a dull moment in a rapidly changing industry.

Cons

Constant layoffs created frustration. Many areas were overworked. In a client facing role you are put in an awkward position of always having to apologize for company shortcomings.

I enjoyed working for this company for several reasons. Geat benefits, fair compensation, good schedule, and scheduled breaks

Cons

There were things that I didn't enjoy about this company. Frequent mass layoffs, didn't value long term employees, not enough opportunities

Pros

I can't think of enough good things to merit a 20 word minimum. Checks never bounced. Earned time off was pretty good.

Cons

Couldn't take the time off that I earned. No work - life balance. Disjointed, paranoid management structure. I worked in St. Louis, reported to a manager in New Jersey, who reported to a director in St. Louis, who reported to a VP in New Jersey. A near total lack of meaningful communication. No sense of history or continuity. So many layoffs and job cuts that temp HR people were the norm to handle layoffs.
