Pros

Good career advancement ability, great management, supportive atmosphere, very smart people, good training and ability to move to different roles within the company

Cons

Very, very long hours. Poor pay for the hours asked to work, analysts in the most common group regularly log over 60 hours a week for standard street pay (with some cases lower)

Pros

decent pay and good name drop to add to your experience and resume

Cons

everything!! since this was a contract role I was brought in to complete a project with 0 leadership or direction. I was left to figure out everything completely on my own from finding a computer and a desk and a phone to figuring out who to contact in India etc to help me revamp the entire global website on the backend. I literally had to show up to work everyday at least an hour early so that I could possibly try to find a open desk sometimes I had to work on the floor or find somewhere in the lunchroom I could set up in the corner this went on for over a month.
