Giant with small heart
Pros: Employee benefits, work from home
Cons: Focus on maximizing billable hours pushes employees to work 50-hour week as the norm, then put in more hours to meet overtime targets. Employee performance rating system embodies unfair treatment of quality employees and devalues employee sacrifices. Managers reinforce the message that employees are dispensable puppets that should do what their told in the best interest of the company.
