Pros

- Great Technology - Good direction of the future - Good customers - Best name in the market for Analytics and DWH

Cons

- Old style management - Some managers of the UK PS Organization are terrible. - The company is as good as your manager, as HR is virtually non-existant - Undecided on whether to follow the market for Big Data, or have an independent strategy. - Virtual employees make it difficult for any team building exercises. - Poor perks compared to other multinationals

Pros

- Free coffee and soda - Nice campus with walking path - Generally relaxed atmosphere - "Unlimited" sick time (it's complicated) - 401k matching and stock purchase plan are offered

Cons

- The company operates like a bunch of "separate fiefdoms". - Teams do not collaborate with each other. - The company runs on Excel and Oracle solutions internally - "islands of information" is an understatement. - IT controls the tools and is completely out of touch with current technology. - Promotions are non-existent. - Ambition is not recognized.
