Principal consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It is good company for beginers or want to work with out career

Cons

This company is not a good company. They removed all bonus based on employee utilization to Company based for consultants. There is no career advancement after Prinicapal. Lot of consultants are not promoted for long time . Managers are moved to senior directors and VP level and technical and functional consultants are stuck at the same level for long time. Managers always try to look for reason of not promote a employee than promote the employee to next level.
