Overall Review
Pros: Learned a lot working being able to work directly with senior management at the Director level. Truly enjoyed the people I worked and valued the learning experience. Great benefits (health insurance, 401k). Opportunities to get certifications paid for is a plus and the new student loan $100 per month contribution for those below manager level.
Cons: Staffing needs a lot of work especially staffing people on the right projects for growth and that meets their skill sets. I had outstanding performance reviews but because of issues with staffing and allowing management to hold people they want for engagements (that could be over a month) I ended up getting an overall low rating due to my utilization.  Pretty much I would describe the performance ratings (which determine your salary, bonus and promotion) as getting all A's and B's on your report card and ending up with a D due to utilization caused by their staffing issues. Seeing a lot of layoff and leave of people who have been with the firm for years and poor severance package compared to competitors. Be prepared to commit to 100% travel if needed.
