Vantaggi

Other consultants are mostly good

Svantaggi

1. The account managers are just awful, they pit consultants against each other 2. They pay next to nothing and when they charge out at phenomenal rates (when you ask for a pay rise they claim you aren’t entitled because “they’re doing you a favour by employing you”) 3. They don’t pay expenses, even if you have to travel to client site miles away (one of my placements was 8 weeks and £89 a week for transport that they didn’t reimburse) 4. You get no say over placements, even if you’re struggling 5. The support teams just do box ticking exercises 6. No point in joining if you’re based outside of London, the clients are spaced across the country and the work is mostly admin support 7. They have corporate events but you have to pay to attend (no transport or accommodation provided so unless you live in the city of the event you’re out of pocket) 8. The compulsory training is useless, not even accredited, luckily you don’t get tied into a compulsory time limit contract

Vantaggi

It is a job that pays.

Svantaggi

They will promise you opportunities that don't exist. The company they contract you to will promise you work that you will not be assigned. I was a Java Consultant with a masters degree in Math and certificate in full stack and I was shoved into a manual testing position that required zero coding and constantly dangled automation in front of my face. When I was asked to look at Selenium, I studied it in some of the copious amounts of downtime i had and was reprimanded during the next meeting for 'wasting company time'. I moved from Texas to New Jersey for my first position. After contracts with the company were terminated, I was pulled off my assignment only to be abruptly fired for "lack of geoflexibility" despite willingness to move to several places they do business including NYC and even Denver. There is no accountability from them as the only response they give is "the decision is final". There is no way to appeal a blatant lie. Their company has no integrity and side with business majors over people that know how chemicals and physics and electrical components work just seem like bad life decisions. They will say you can reapply but they won't hire you. They'd full of it at every angle.
