Grossly mismanaged from the top down. Company exhibits all the signs of being for sale.

Pros

The employees are the reason the company is still in business. Good people who always seem to rally in the 11th hour to make the loose ends come together.

Cons

Where do I start? A tremendous effort is placed in corporate "cheer leading". The company is staging itself to break apart into separate entities. This makes sense if the result is to sell off profitable pieces and dissolve the unprofitable ones...and still, the "smoke and mirrors" campaign continues by management. Wages are not that of industry standards (enter more corporate propaganda). Advancement opportunities are almost nonexistent, and when there are promotions, the pattern seems to be to promote the inept...at all management levels. Want a future? Look elsewhere.

Pros

decent pay good entry level job- if you can get in for a job, it's a good place to start out. The people are nice enough if you learn to talk the company line and drink the kool-aid

Cons

nepotism, it's all about who you know to even get in the front door upper management has no clue on how to lead well people are too busy just trying to keep their jobs to do anything of real substance no real opportunties for moving up

Pros

If you are looking for work/life balance, this is a place that will allow you to have family commitments without making you bail out on most of them at the last minute. You don't have to lie to attend your son's last soccer game of the season. And you can attend every birthday party your daughter will ever have. The people here are good, solid midwestern people with good, solid ethics and values. Clients are top-notch, all drawn from the Fortune 1000. Average tenure of employees is way above 8 years with some pretty nice benefits coming to people who stay past 10 years.

Cons

Average tenure of employees is way above 8 years with some pretty nice benefits coming to people who stay past 10 years. The company is averse to change and afraid of risk. You will compete with highly tenured employees for new openings at higher levels and you will likely lose, whether your skills and experience justify it or not. The rewards and recognition practices at the company can be likened to high school popularity contests. Regular performance reviews, skillset evaluations, and promotions/salary increases based on merit are rare. If you are well-connected inside the company you can expect to do well. If you're a naturally political animal, you'll figure out the system and move up.
