Pros

There really isn't much to say for this category. The individuals who work here are, generally, great colleagues but...

Cons

Micromanagement. Do NOT even think about taking a lunch break. If you want to leave 1 minute before 5:30 you better have special permission. Catty management. When "the big guys" come into the office it's like Mrs. Trunchbull is in town. If you do a good job, great, no one cares. Want to advance and move up in your career? Nope. Not happening here. Awful. Terrible. The worst job I've ever had.

Pros

Not much to say here, unfortunately.

Cons

In the technology practice, the unwillingness to adapt to a rapidly changing market can no longer be ignored. Too many decisions continue to be justified by the mindset of "this is the way we've always done things," even when those approaches are becoming less effective or counter-productive. While competitors evolve their business models, recruiting strategies, and client engagement practices, continues to be reluctant to challenge long-standing processes and assumptions. The impact of this resistance to change is becoming increasingly visible in the market. Clients and candidates have more options than ever before, and perceptions of the organization are being shaped by experiences that no longer align with current expectations. Without a willingness to listen to feedback and embrace new approaches, there is a real risk of causing lasting damage to the company's reputation, employee retention, and long-term competitiveness.
