Pros

They have lot of clients- long term projects for software developers. They have a strong immigration team who would quickly respond to our queries. Seamless visa transfers/extension and GC process.

Cons

less options to pick health insurance plans and they are costly too!

Pros

Free coffee, Work from home......

Cons

Everyone seemed nice and great at first! after a month everyone started to show how they really felt. If you do not go out with them they will OUT you out the club. It was like high school all over! its a department full of kids that talk about each other. The new pss manager is terrible at keeping her emotions on lock, She stays upset for no reason. If she did not like you .....she makes it known, She bad at managing her attitude, stress and facial expressions that look awkward! They preach about not gossiping and what not ;but that is far from the truth! OH! you think i'm done?? oh no!!! they are the most hypocritical people EVER They say ask away with questions and always ask "QUESTIONS"!!! yet when i was sitting down for my performance improvement plan she stated you should not be asking questions by "now " ???.....and if you do not fit in with the "rest" and by the "rest" i mean being obnoxious, talking about workouts ect.. FYI the jokes they make are really corny or just not funny, so prepare to fake laugh your way through some pretty awful jokes. I felt pressured to go learn and be as quick as them. while they stated to me several times that if i needed a bit more time to understand the material to just let them know and we could take the time we needed.... ok that went out the window withing 3 weeks. Its unfortunate that i had to leave this company, it has potential... I now understand why the tun over rate is so high with this company or at least the Payroll department that is. Stay clear of this place! its full of drama and the energy is so fake! do not fall for it!! once you get the PIP you better start looking because the next move is out the door. And the performance improvement plan is just for their own selves. My manager also seemed very pleased to be giving me this information the PIP information, i felt disgusted by how she handled that PIP i no longer wanted to associated with a company who no longer wanted me there. It honesty is a game of how long a person will last there...
