Pros

1. Relatively flexible working hours. Nobody disturbs you cos they do not even show up in office. Decent source of income for side hustlers who just want to collect a pay check and a steady stream of monthly salary without actually doing your day job. Will not get promoted but will not get caught and fired too. 2. Free sponsored coursera account. Can leverage on this to slowly upskill and find a job elsewhere when you are ready to work again.

Cons

1. Pretentious culture. They only mention the good stuff at the end of a project or to celebrate a quick win. But the people at the top are unaware of the chaos and lack of teamwork on the ground. Bunch of people just smoking their way through to get their pay check. Especially people in the middle management who claims to be subject matter experts but leave the dirty jobs to the junior hires, steals credit and get all the limelight. People who get promoted are those who spent office hours doing showy and useless stuff in a bid to be forefront of innovation and [insert any other buzzword]. The only capable people are the leavers who struggle to 'move up' in such a toxic environment and unfair performance evaluation. 2. Body shop. Beware of being on the bench. You are left on your own when you are out of project. Supervisors do not care enough to find you a project that's within your expertise. If you are not resourceful or extrovert enough to find your own opportunity, good luck at being noticed/deployed to a decent project. Grads are just thrown into projects to figure out how to get things done on their own, without charging the client a huge bill. How convenient!

Pros

The office is nice; there's cold brew coffee on tap and decent food from time to time for free. Free yogurt and cereal daily. Super flexible Work from Home situation in the Recruiting group (you only have to be in the office 2 days per week, and even those 2 days are relatively flexible).

Cons

Don't take a Recruiter job here. Can't speak on other jobs, but don't take a Recruiter job. There's no ATS system. There aren't any systems at all. The whole job is done in Excel spreadsheets and MS Outlook. There is a weekly report you have to fill out with hundreds of rows of Excel updates, something that would be automatically handled by the simplest ATS system. This is a big part of your job, whereas if there was any Software product being utilized, it would literally not be a part of your job. Also - 75% of reqs you work on will get cancelled, but the business partners approach you with aggressive, 911 level urgency for every single req. You put in a ton of work because you're under the gun, and then a week later they just come back and say "oh we don't need those anymore." The Recruiting group at this company is unlike anything I've ever seen in a professional environment. It was jarring. I've never written a Glassdoor review before - but I felt super obligated to for this company because I wouldn't want to see another person unsuspectingly join the Recruiting team.
