Pros
Worked alongside some great colleagues and easy-to-work-with clients.
Cons
- The CEO-cum-owner and his wife run this firm - the lack of a professionally-run workplace environment is glaringly felt everyday. - Arbitrary decisions regarding work policies; employee policies and procedures keep changing ever so often. - Coercive employment agreement with an unrealistic notice period. - Year end evaluations are a farce; they very rarely serve to give honest feedback to an employee and instead project what the management thinks of the employee. - There is a culture of micromanagement - the CEO often tended to jump right into the middle of a project and ghost-write emails to various stakeholders in the project! - Average wage is lower than the competition. - Since this is a consulting firm, weekly travel to client locations occurs frequently. For someone with a family this can be burdensome. - Consulting on a couple of Oracle products bring this firm an overwhelming majority of it's business. For me, this indicated that the company was vulnerable to a downturn in these products' fortunes and this contributed to job insecurity. - Lack of opportunities for professional growth (in terms of responsibility and designation) since everybody reports to the CEO in practice.
