Pros

None, this is a firm that is nothing more than a staff augmentation service. Stay away run don't walk!

Cons

The so called Managing Principal called half hour early and said he was a few minutes late , He began to describe himself as a Program manager who spends a lot of time in the weeds, while that may work ,at times ,for small programs it had no place in our conversation. Next he asked a question that I thought was a joke; what is the relationship between a monthly , quarterly and annual report, if this guy is a program manager , I am Batman.

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
