Submit a Review"Outstanding and challenging technical work can be found. Lot of thought leadership in the organization. Sometimes is very hard to be a forward thinking consultant since the business units, who manage relationship and client contracts tend to be extremely conservative and not willing to look kindly at new solutions because of the risk involved in proposing new solutions concept. This makes CSC more of a follower than a leader in the world of COTS products."
