Pros

There was a Playstation 4 in the break room

Cons

The different departments didn't communicate, causing stress for the bottom rung employees. The compensation is misrepresented before you sign the offer letter. They claim that they pay out a large bonus, but the rules to qualify for even a basic bonus are extremely rigid. Get your compensation as salary heavy in the beginning. The parent company really mismanaged the acquisition of my company. Lots of broken promises as soon as the revenue forecast didn't increase as much as we had been directed to. They cut salaries at the start of the pandemic. They have a "cost of living raise" annually, but that raise is actually your performance raise and it CAN be withheld from an entire department. The HR system is completely disjointed. There is no central portal and many things are managed on entirely different websites. I had to use two instances of ADP to fill out my time sheet every week.

Pros

there are no pros for this company

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
