Vantaggi
My colleagues and I suffered together through some difficult times. I had high hopes to move within the organization, but this never happened. I honestly gave it 110%, but I could not go on.
Svantaggi
I was hired and began work for a particular project, so my experience is limited to one project in a remote office that was isolated from the company and most employees. As it turned out, the client was difficult and my role in the project was not needed until after about 11 months of my hire date. By that point, I had resigned. But I was very frustrated that I wasted almost a full year of my life keeping a seat warm for this company. My experience illustrates the mismanagement that my team regularly experienced. During my time of employment, I found that it is difficult to be a woman at this company. I sought other work internally but was not allowed on the one project where I could contribute because, as a senior member told me, "You are a woman." One manager who thought he was still living in Mad Men days was promoted to director after I left. The types of things this person says in meetings, to women, and behind closed doors will likely land a lawsuit in the company's lap. I had no choice but to resign from this project and company once I found another opportunity. Based on my personal experience, I could never recommend this company to a job seeker... especially if you are a woman.
