Company on good track however the Consulting Services business is unethical
Pros: Company is getting better every day.  Love the openness and growth mindset culture.
Cons: Microsoft product teams are all about deploying the right solutions for the customer. However the Consulting Services organization demands that their staff deploy solutions that increase billable time.  When challenged we're told not to think but do what we're told and that revenue is more important than the deploying the right solution.  Utilization based incentives drive the wrong behavior.  When engagements are completed in a fraction of the time allocated, we are told to perform work slower otherwise we'll be fired.
