Vantaggi

Smart people who just want to do good work. For the most part, once you are on a gig, things go pretty smoothly. Unlike many other consulting firms, Magenic really cares about project outcome. Great facilities.

Svantaggi

It seems like the company changes direction with the wind. First, Microsoft Only, then JAVA, then Pivotal, then Dockers...and its not just keeping up with the industry, its chasing the latest shiney object. Sales is a revolving door. No...revolving doors move much slower than Magenic burns through sales people. They have an almost 50% attrition rate. This year, while the economy is getting better and other companies are hiring, magenic is missing sales numbers and doing layoffs.

Vantaggi

The people there are very smart. They try to make things work even though their managers aren't supportive. Nice office space. Free soda. Nice Crhistmas gift.

Svantaggi

The lies start with recruiting. The recruiters use the CEO's linked in to get you interested...like he reached out to you himself, but it is really just the recruiters. They tell you they are focussed on project work, but it is really a lot of poorly managed agile that they call "capacity model". In other words, you start billing before anyone knows what you are supposed to be doing, and then we are told to lie to the customer about how we are bulding backlog. yeah...we're building a backlog of billing. I was on one project that was cancelled by the client when they figured out we weren't really being productive. My buddy was on another one. It's not uncommon. They want you to take PTO if you go on the bench. Training and career enhancement is nonexistant. They figure that your training is you working on a project.
