Business Outlook

Pros

Flexibility of work schedule, ability to work on and off site as needed. Many of the people really know their what they are doing and do a great job.

Cons

the foreign consultants take the work from the American consultants. The foreign consultants do not follow the Standards and get away with it, because by the time they finish a project its too late to go back and pay them more to get it done in time to meet the deadline.

An OK place to work, with not that much upside.

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The hours are not bad, and the benefits are reasonable. There is considerable flexibility on your work hours and work location. Colleagues are generally nice and fun to work with.

Cons

There is a lot of bureaucracy (as with any company of this size), but the internal groups are highly inefficient at getting stuff done. It takes forever just to get your computer fixed, for example. There is also a general sense of unhelpfulness, in that other groups are typically not willing to share their information or lend a helping hand when asked. There is also not a good sense of a unified culture, with all the recent acquisitions that the company has made. Compensation is also lower than competitors, and the company as a whole seems to be struggling.

Good carreer opportunities, but very uneven management.

Business Outlook

Pros

Very good career opportunities and interesting business areas.

Cons

Very bad overview of the management over the whole organisation. Being mainly working in the IT field, I have sometimes the feeling most of the upper management doesn't even know there is an IT department in there. Furthermore some decisions made by the management do not make any sense given the fact they don't know where the technology is taking us this days.
