Pros

Good benefits, place for growth, interesting projects, knowledgable team, most seniors and managers are happy to help, good training, ability to take long vacation paid or unpaid.

Cons

After NSHD was aquired by the CBIZ, everything went down the hill. The office became way too political and clicky. It was who you know and who likes you in the management ranks that determined your future projects and career growth. Employees were viewed as numbers and dispensable items. Team-building activities were cut short or completely eliminated in order to keep up with the budget, which became the main focal point of all meetings, discussions, etc. Recent layoffs completely killed employee moral and motivation. People are afraid of future lay offs. Overall, the place lost its reputation of a great place to work.

Pros

Friendly environment and growth-oriented - office dependent. You will learn a lot and be exposed to all industries, which is great. If you are new, they will treat you with respect and try to help you learn; they understand it's a lot.

Cons

Like most companies, they want you to meet your billable hours, which is good. However, the negative here is if the company typically performs worse in the summer or the work starts to slow down for any reason, or you have too many staff competing for work, your billables begin to be negatively affected, which is faulted towards the employees ' performance. You need 150 billable hours a month, regardless of vacation and PTO. Nonbillable hours will not save you from the end goal, which is again, billable hours. Meaning, if you have a meeting, a federal holiday, or an office closure which is non-billable, you will have to make that time up. It's the hard law in this firm.
