Pros

Very Professional folks (those i interacted with) and excellent immigration team. They addressed my questions/concerns promptly. I haven't seen a team as theirs who knows employment immigration so well.

Cons

Very bad and expensive medical/dental coverage with none or no coverage. I worked with a major vendor of their's. So never got to work with in house placement team. But my friends who worked with the placement team didn't have great things to talk about.

Pros

Nothing, this was a horrible work environment. Good for people with no experience or coming straight out of college.

Cons

I worked on the payroll team during my time at Populus Group. At first I thought it was a really great company to work for but boy oh boy just like after the reviews I read after the first two weeks there is no work life balance at all. I was never off from work, I would stay late and would then have to go home and work after hours and on weekends. During the time I worked there my team was located out of town at the corporate office and was never there for me when I had a question. I had the opportunity to visit them a few times but they made it clear I was not part of the team and was treated very badly. This is a company that if you look very attractive and have the frat boy/sorority sister complex you will make it there. If you are not into groups, clicks and gossip good luck working for this company. The salary is horrible and you are very over worked. Upper Management is a joke. It was a very bad experience for me.
