Pros
The work is a lot of fun. You get to work on a variety of projects for a variety of client so there is never really a dull moment. Some of the management team are really great people who are passionate about the work. When you and your boss are both passionate about the work, it makes work fun. There are a lot of opportunities to learn and carve out your own niche if you want. The education assistance is a really great benefit. The only caveat is you have to stick around for x amount of years or you have to repay it (which is 100% fair). There are some really great people at TSTS who know what they are doing, are passionate about their work, and enjoy coming to work every day.
Cons
While some of the management team are really great, other members of the management team are not. They have a tendency to micro manage and want control of everything so they overstep their bounds and create issues where there didn't need to be issues. Some of the management team can also make a lot of assumptions about people and circumstances and believe their assumptions as gospel without any insight into the people or the circumstance. This is very much a family company, so there is nepotism that goes on. The health insurance isn't very good and there is no family leave (maternal or paternal). Since you are a consultant, maximizing billable hours is your goal. However, you're judged on your hours billed to the client, not hours worked on the client and management writes a lot of hours off. So your performance metrics are skewed.
