Pros

Opportunities for career growth and promotions over time. Supportive team culture and generally comfortable work environment. Bench management is reasonable—people aren’t immediately cut when between projects. Exposure to international projects and clients.

Cons

Salary increases are limited, especially at senior levels; promotion does not always come with corresponding pay raise. Internal training quality has declined; fewer and less engaging courses compared to the past. Company focus has shifted more towards clients than employees; employee experience is less prioritized than before. Project availability can be challenging, especially in specific locations like Serbia. Typical challenges of outsourcing, including occasional project reductions and bench periods.

Pros

What can I say ... I enjoy it here. Some of the brightest people I've ever worked with, and hungry, humble, smart is so true. The opportunity you have here is largely what you make it. It's way less red tape than larger consulting firms, and they are open to new ideas. It's not for everyone, but if you want to work on the bleeding edge and like wearing multiple hats, this is the place for you.

Cons

It's not perfect. There can be improvements to benefits and compensation to be more competitive. Also sometimes the targets run contrary to each other, but that can be attributed to the dynamic market right now.
