Pros

Great challenging projects but don’t wait to be told what to do be active in your actions in how you become value added for your client when on assignment. Salary is quite reasonable and great support when things don’t go right, if you’re honest with people they’ll be honest with you. Recipe for success or at least mine were: A. Get involved in cross organisational initiatives and get recognised. B. Chat to your manager and let him know what your expectations are and he should let you know what is achievable. C. If you do consider leaving at any time don’t wait until you are frustrated as you then make poor decisions about your reasons for joining another organisation.

Cons

Performance reviews are what they are. You can put a lot of effort in to them and easily be offended with the outcome, but don’t take it personally, no system is perfect. What is important is learning from those observations which you deem are valid and don’t worry wart the rest, there is always a degree of fitting you in to the performance bell curve no matter what anyone says. Life is too short to sweat the small stuff. When you feel you have had enough then look for a new challenge, don’t stay and whinge, no one likes a whinger. If you do stay then push for a new challenge.

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.
