      Fantastic Opportunity To Experience True Apathy From An Employer

      Business analyst/implementation consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      A great chance to participate in Hunger Games style blood sports against coworkers, as you all scurry to find the next project before you’re booted for being on the bench. Incredible opportunity to learn first hand what happens when a mega corporation outsources most of its employee services and information sources to chatbots. Amazing experiences can be had if you enjoy the magic of having a glowing performance review reduced to a mediocre “lucky you have a job” rating because sales pipeline is week. Out of this world resource for constant emails about meaningless drivel, communication no real or helpful information.

      Cons

      -Work/Life balance can be a challenge. -You have to see pictures of Ravi Kumar hanging out in Greece and other exotic places while being told the company is cutting costs,

      Pros

      Good medical, dental, and vision benefits.

      Cons

      If you are not an Indian male, you are not valued. Everything is focused around being as cheap as possible including a big shift to move jobs to India or bringing Indian employees to the U.S. on VISAs. Most employees are remote and all the company provides is a laptop and cell phone. The turnover of employees who are U.S. citizens in the last three years has been extremely high because of dissatisfaction. The company touts their high level of diversity and inclusion which is very minimal, especially with women in management and technical jobs. It's a male dominated company.
