Pros

people, interesting work and client base

Cons

Lack of recognition, long working hours, micro-management. Low pay with no real benefits and no pay rise over a year, which is basically a pay cut considering the current economic context. Bonuses are non-existent due to financial challenges, yet they keep having the same excuse for many years despite high profit margins. They keep postponing promotions, yet they have been promoting people in the down low, which screams lack of transparency and ethics. They expect you to go beyond your tasks, yet no recognition or promotion in sight (unless you are cliquey with the senior management), with a mediocre pay and long hours. Only good side is building your resume but don't last here too long. Very cliquey, obvious favouritism from management to the team. They keep complaining about the high turnover rates but do nothing about it. They hire managers not for their expertise, but to bring money, so you end up working for a manager who is incompetent and has no knowledge of the actual practice, only know how to sell work. All talk and no action.

Pros

- great bunch of guys on the teams - get paid on your time off - clients are reasonable and down to earth

Cons

- management don’t look after those under them - no bonus or pay rises - long hours 12hr days usually. - no scope for promotion unless time served - HR are terrible at replying, if you get a reply at all. - low wage considering other companies out there doing the same jobs in the same location. - lots of older generation which creates a slower working environment. - lots of unnecessary movement of teams and individuals on teams. - bad organisation by senior management for taskings. - people leave far too regular due to no change or addressing issues by the senior management. - jobs taken on a ‘friends get the job’ basis instead of who’s best for the job. - travel time comes out of your leave.
