Pros

They have projects that look good on a resume You can usually move from one project to another when done High physical/digital security within the company

Cons

- Stereotype corporate culture; what you'd find in movies - Black-and-white "all employees must..." policies that lead to silliness like spending tens of hours on mandatory training irrelevant to my position on my own time - Inexperienced project lead (YMMV) and inexperienced offshore team - Way too many newsletters and employees can message everyone in the company, apparently - Computer security is obnoxious (can't use a thumb drive, can't transfer a document, etc.) if managed by HCL

Pros

nothing, really, nothing appears to be functioning in this organization from onboarding over working, billing, offboarding

Cons

I have not been paid for my work after almost 90 days now. There is no formal explanation or refusal, but they are just sitting it out it appears, pocketing the money that has been paid on my behalf by the client.
