Pros

Nil. Not Recommended to enter Graduate Program

Cons

- The HR do not consider your career aspirations. - Promised a training, but some people get pulled out of training to fit their client needs when there are so many people still on bench? Why never utilize the resources on bench? - Projects for graduates are bad - Create activities for everyone, but really the one enjoying the workplace and participating for these activities are the corporate team. Take a look at the pictures posted by the corporate team. Seems that only their faces appear on every event...While the rest barely enjoy their projects that is forcefully allocated to them. - Poor bonus

Pros

* They train new grads, so you get a lot of valuable training * Depending on the projects, it has the potential to have a good life balance *Hybrid and Remote opportunity Will recommend to get your foot in the door

Cons

* Pay is not very competitive. Needs improvement * Depending on some client projects, the work-life balance can also be very bad * The culture is horrible, the outlook and appearance of the company is so different than what is on the ground—cutthroat culture, pushing culture. * Sometimes it enables a rude and disrespectful culture * Career growth is very minimal * tend to hire lots of indians, and an indian dominated culture/circle can make a non indian feel left out
