Lack of true North American entity

Pros

The legacy teams who still are in place from pre-mergers with the Chinese entity are all great people to work with. Really smart, engaging, and willing to do what it takes to advance the company forward.

Cons

Unfortunately the Chinese holding company has no idea about how things work in North America and continually pushes trends and "new opportunities" onto the North American team with no investment in what it will take to be successful in the market space. They also do not invest in the NA practices.

Pros

Nice view from the Kirkland office

Cons

Company is very top-heavy. A business with 150 full-time employees should not have 15 vice presidents. Excellent reviews from clients does not translate to raises or bonuses at review time. Best to be a slacker if you work here. The CEO (in Boston) has no clue about the incompetence of management and sales in Kirkland.

A global consulting company with startup feel

Pros

The company culture is fantastic. As a services organization, people are generally onsite with customers and it can be difficult to connect as a team. iSoftStone does a great job managing this with company events, BBQs at the office, and encouraging frequent 1:1 meetings and work activities. Senior leadership is strong and supportive and the door is always open to discuss career, issues, clients, etc.

Cons

Training has been difficult to come by in the last few years. As a billable resource, the training needs to be done in off hours which makes it hard to achieve. The support is there to take training, but it'd be nice to do this during the work day.
