When the going gets tough, Proxima gets furloughing

Pros

Very supportive group of people, pretty good culture although seemed forced at times

Cons

Proxima treats its full-time employees like temporary contract workers. When there are bumps in the road or issues with clients, Proxima's first line of defense is getting rid of you no matter how long you have worked there for or how much good work you did for them. It's a great place to work if you like to wake up every morning wondering if you will have a job that day anymore. If you decide to work for Proxima you should probably have a 6-month emergency fund on hand

Pros

None - Salary and benefits appear in line with market until you realize that all positions are viewed as temporary contractors, where management will furlough or terminate entire engagement teams if a client does not renew their SOW

Cons

To say Management overpromises and underdelivers would be a massive understatement. Management is very manipulative, pitching long term growth potential and exciting strategic work. The reality is that Proxima performs internal procurement staff augmentation and short term indirect cost reduction work. They also treat long term and highly rated VPs the same as a first year analyst in that everyone is disposable regardless of performance if it helps cut cost to boost metrics for the Private Equity investors. The majority of the US work is also with two clients and there is significant risk to the future pipeline. Management continues to brag about positive sales leads which seem to never materialize into actual work.
