Vantaggi
The people are great to work with and I have the flexibility to work remote full time.
Svantaggi
You never know when you will be laid off unless you are staffed on a project. I took this role in the beginning of the year and was told by staffing recruiter that I would not have to find my own projects, and was already assigned a project when hired. Upon onboarding, I discovered that a large population of Consultants must find their own work, with the exception of my team. I have been waiting to be staffed on a project for over 6 months. Management started to expect us to look for our own projects, and the only way to be successful is via networking. If you try to use MyScheduler to find projects you are screwed! It’s not really the fault of the company, but more so the state of the economy that I have not been staffed. I do blame recruiters for lack of transparency because I feel like I was scammed. Based off my skill-set and practice, projects are slim in financial services. Also, be aware that if you interview for project roles with other teams, no one tells you ahead of time what to expect for the role or interview. I went into client interviews blind, and felt like I was not set up for success. I’m still awaiting to be staffed.
