Pros

Good salary, good people, emphasis on continued learning. Great technology.

Cons

There is no work life balance. I was on a project where I was working 14+ hours a day, 7 days a week, for a month. I got a "day off" when I got sick. My supervisor had me tell her when I was going to church so she knew not to expect me online (I worked from home). The bottom line is all that matters. Work was outsourced to India for the sake of cost. When quality suffered, the US team had to make up for it. I had daily anxiety attacks. HR and management knew that my health was at risk and they did nothing until my physician intervened and put me on medical leave. Getting laid off was the best thing for me.

Pros

they provide specific training hours and pay some technology allowance which feels like additional money

Cons

very political environment, they favour some people so they always are in good condition. With the rest, they don't care. Work hard, get great client feedback but they really won't care. A high hierarchical structure which they use annual reviews and promotion to get people work too much and to be quiet at unfair circumstances.

Pros

Some really smart people in the development teams. Clean restrooms. Great technology in conference rooms.

Cons

The company mis-leads its customers, they talk one thing and deliver something else, sweeping real issues under the carpet. Management are all 'in the boys club' and look after themselves. Personal agendas are rife within management in the IT area - they'll stop at nothing to better their own careers, and I mean nothing - dishonesty seems to be a quality they aspire to. Manipulation is a daily goal. I've never worked for an organization that shows such a lack of respect to its staff. High turnover rate - not surprising, the smart people leave. Forget it if you are a woman looking to get into a senior management position within a technology area - it's boys only. I've witnessed senior management make racist , homophobic and sexist comments. Avoid this place.
