Pros

Not many but the only good thing about them is you always have weekends off

Cons

FULL OF BULLYING AND HARRASSMENT The issues I was having was brought to HRs attention and numerous managers. I was wrongfully terminated due to a medical issue which kept me out of work for approximately 1 week. They don’t follow the employee handbook and every day was a constant struggle because of all of the constant bullying going on that management refused to address. They’d rather sweep it under the rug. Plenty of discrimination here especially in Conquest/Atlas SA.

Pros

Amount of PTO time - but you need to cover for yourself when on PTO. The analysts and technical consultants that you will work with are awesome, but they are over allocated as well. If you want to have a work-life balance, don't apply.

Cons

Plan on working more than 40 hours a week on a consistent basis. Manager for the Project Management team has her favorites. Manager assigns additional projects even though most of the team is already over allocated. Lack of training - you are assigned to a mentor/colleague who doesn't have time to help train you.
