"Overall the company is a good place to work. Promotions are harder to get and there is no clarity on how the decisions are being made. But if you are a person, who can ignore these things, then the company is a great place as it provides you with several opportunities to work with different technologies."

"Coming out of college the job offer from this company seemed very lucrative and perfect for one with little experience. However, after spending nearly half a year with the company I have found it to be quite disorganized and extremely questionable in how they handle their day-to-day operations. I was often left confused about my role and who I was reporting to, as they always seemed to change. To put it simply, it was like the left hand did not know what the right hand was doing at all."

"Opportunities to work around the globe with numerous, quality clients. The internal management isn't the best though and it's easy for new hires to fall through the cracks. Some are lucky to actually gain any IT skills during their first year."
