Pluspunten

The company is now regularly listed as a top 10 IT consulting firm, so it has some brand appeal. There are numerous business units to get involved in, but this is very dependent on Director and the office you work at.

Minpunten

I can only speak of the offices in the Boston, NYC, and DC regions from my experience. There are three types of roles - business analyst, infrastructure, and technical analyst. Infrastructure folks are your stereotypical network guys and focus exclusively on configurations/installs. Technical analysts are your developers who are often underpaid and not as well respected as they should be for an IT consulting firm. Business analysts tend to requirements gathering and have the best work/life balance. At some offices, the ratio of business : technical folk is appalling considering the technical nature of the work. In terms of business units - the primary one is IBM. There is other work in Pegasystems, EMC, but no noticeable growth. In the case of Pega, this unit consistently finds difficulties landing projects. Directors play too large of an importance in project management, and lack technical chops. Company culture has fallen by the way side after the acquisition.

Pluspunten

Very little outside of some of the people you work with. FTO is only nice if you have a manager who lets you use it. They did allow work from home, not sure if that is still the case.

Minpunten

This company was run poorly by Tom Hogan before private equity bought it but the buyout accelerated their decline. If you want to be a cog in the machine, this is the place for you. The leadership is only focused on themselves. They will praise you or throw you under the bus depending on how they feel it makes them look to their bosses. The employees who don’t have a stable long term project live in fear of being let go irregardless of talent and many of their most talented are leaving because they see the writing on the wall.
