Pros

Everyday is different and challenging . This is a job that makes you think on your feet everyday and adjust . The daily grind is out the door because everyday is different

Cons

The daily challenges of making things work for the client in an ever changing enviroment can be taxing . The fact that everyday is different can be daunting to some.

Pros

They pay well. The interview process was fast. They were doing direct placement so from the time they contacted me to the time I had my first interview was only a week.

Cons

Once you start working for them you really do not hear from them. Except if you time sheet is late. An associate of mine referred a colleague of his and he was hired and they made no offer of a referral fee. Had to go to them and request the referral fee. The fee was very low considering the quality of the hire and term that he worked on the project.

Pros

Not one pro about this company.

Cons

Work load was far too much. Management not appreciative of the amount of overtime put in. Disrespectful employees. Favoritism based on race was very common. HR did nothing to remedy office problems. People come and go from this office for countless reasons. There is no work/life balance and you can forget having a social life.
