Pros

- Pay can be reasonable, if you know how to negotiate. Yearly pay increases are common - Experience working with bluechip organisations, including banking, telecommunication and government, among others

Cons

- Management, at the executive level, are disconnected from workers - Very poor culture. Experience can vary greatly between employees, even those sitting right next to you - Most middle managers/BDs (not all) are difficult to work with. Management styles vary between autocratic and chaotic - The bench is nothing more than a set of desks. You'll need to be proactive and work with the BDs to keep you busy - Company policies are inconsistent, and often change without prior notice - Consultants are usually reprimanded for not complying

Pros

You get to meet good consultants. (NOT THE MANAGERS)

Cons

- No graduate program. No mentoring. Instead, they want you to learn from doing certifications on your own. Well at least they pay you bonus for getting certification. -very very very x10 poor office. Messy power codes. Monitors are everywhere. Feels like being a computer guru in a big container box. -They don't care about your career path. Your career plan is not their concern AT ALL. They will try their best to put you in any available project. - poor bench policy. Well there is written policy but they don't seem to care about it.

I don’t know what office you were in but it doesn’t describe the DWS office. The water is filtered so I don’t know what tap you were using
