Pros

Working at blue chip companies

Cons

Terrible experience at this company. Would only recommend to go for them as a last resort. They force you to go forward for placements and you have no choice. Account managers do not care about your personal career goals and progression and will force you to go forward for any role they deem is suitable for you. Relocations are also forced upon you with little to no support. The company is extremely slow to react and help when support is required when on client site. All of this to get next to no benefits and below average pay. Management while waiting to be placed is extremely disorganised and does not add any value and seems like a waste of time. Pre-placement training provided is nothing like the stuff you are required to do on client site.

Pros

It is a job that pays.

Cons

They will promise you opportunities that don't exist. The company they contract you to will promise you work that you will not be assigned. I was a Java Consultant with a masters degree in Math and certificate in full stack and I was shoved into a manual testing position that required zero coding and constantly dangled automation in front of my face. When I was asked to look at Selenium, I studied it in some of the copious amounts of downtime i had and was reprimanded during the next meeting for 'wasting company time'. I moved from Texas to New Jersey for my first position. After contracts with the company were terminated, I was pulled off my assignment only to be abruptly fired for "lack of geoflexibility" despite willingness to move to several places they do business including NYC and even Denver. There is no accountability from them as the only response they give is "the decision is final". There is no way to appeal a blatant lie. Their company has no integrity and side with business majors over people that know how chemicals and physics and electrical components work just seem like bad life decisions. They will say you can reapply but they won't hire you. They'd full of it at every angle.
