Pros

None Worth Mentioning: Despite a few decent colleagues, they can’t outweigh the overwhelmingly negative aspects of working here.

Cons

Deceptive Hiring Practices: The company operates on an unspoken policy of hiring employees for specific projects and then firing them once the project ends. There's no real job security, and you’re merely a temporary resource. Low Pay: Compensation is far below industry standards. Despite demanding work and high expectations, the pay is insufficient and does not reflect the effort required. Unfair Leave Policies: If you're on the bench between projects, you’re pressured to use personal leave or face negative consequences. This policy unfairly penalizes employees for being in-between assignments. Forced Sabbaticals: Employees without current projects are often coerced into taking unpaid sabbaticals. This hidden policy creates financial instability and adds to job insecurity. Mass Layoffs: The CEO’s decisions led to massive layoffs in 2023, and despite promises in mid-2024 to halt further terminations, layoffs continued unabated. This demonstrates a lack of commitment to employees. Promotion Based on Flattery, Not Performance: Promotions are not based on merit or actual work performance but on how well you can ingratiate yourself with upper management. Only those who excessively flatter and align with the higher-ups are promoted, leaving competent employees sidelined.

Pros

I guess you can say you are a “consultant” if you work here

Cons

This is not a true consulting firm. You will not work on strategy or problem solving. You are a contractor doing very simple project management tasks. I am embarrassed to say I worked here. I genuinely cannot recommend working here to anyone. If you are a female, be prepared to make significantly less than male counterparts :-)
