OK, if you're in Consulting Workforce

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-In ATS/ANSS you can join with very little technical experience and get put through a technical bootcamp for skills such as Java, tester, etc. Great for gaining experience right out of college. -For the consulting workforce, analysts start with 25 vacation days a year and great salaries. Even interns make more money per hour than beginner ATS/ANSS full-time employees. Loaner laptops for consulting. -Great people, lots of fun, overall young workforce with lots of smart, helpful coworkers.

Cons

-ATS/ANSS employees start with 12 days vacation time and low pay (just above half) compared to consulting workforce beginners, with promises of possible advancement. No loaner laptops. -Consulting workforce either must travel or should be willing to. A minus for some. Most travel is from non-DC employees flying into DC weekly. -Bad apples/micromanagers here and there. If you're stuck with one, hard to get into another role. -Some roles are body-fillers to charge clients for that extra body; very unfulfilling since very little responsibilities or tasks are given to those. -Happens randomly where you get changed from your original role to another role that no one wants to fill in the team.

Business Outlook

Pros

1) Boss is Always Right -->If you have good rappo with Manager you will get what you want...onsite promotion u name it. 2) If you dont like coding this is the best place... bare minimum like "hello-world" will do 3) MNC with huge Regional biases... keep to your roots. 4) Huge number of projects 5) Laterals get huge benefit only if they are not duped by high skill bonus etc. 6) Girls have the liberty of not stretching..... uhhhh!!... work hrs. 7) BRAND NAME IS THE ONLY FACTOR THAT U WANT FROM HERE/ THAT IS THE ONLY THING U GET 8) Variable / bonus pay is above 95% every time

Cons

1) You have to be ur Managers and TLs puppy 2) Way too much politics.. for onsite promotion..etc 3) Feedbacks and discussion depends upon the mood/ interest of your TL. 4) Could end up learning nothing technical in ur career here.... 5) Forced Useless certification .... All good certification have no refund 6) Compensation plan is totally useless 7) Hotskill , bonus depends on the will of higher management 8) way too many phony talks until they talk of compensation 9) You can be threatened of job security any time by any one. Managers threaten about spoiling the career of ppl quite often 10) If you leave a project the previous project makes sure that you get the worst possible rating 11) Talent / achievement / Delivery of good quality code etc are given lesser priority as opposed to doing community service like "birthday celebration coordinator..etc" 12) TL Supervisor are far less technical then they should be.. dont expect some one to help/guide you in ur technical aspirations.. ur career counselor could be dummer than you..
