Pros

After working at Centresource for over five years my skills advanced tremendously. Being at Centresource is a constant learning experience as every employee is incredibly smart and talented at their job. Hiring people that believe in the culture and vision of the company allows for a cohesive unit where everyone acts like adults. They take a team first, client second and individual third approach to the company. If you are only concerned about you, this is not the place to work. The work is challenging, but the output is high quality. I enjoyed working on the consulting side of the company knowing the production team members implementing the work were the best. You are offered the opportunity to work across many industries and specialties. The company invests in continuing education for its employees both for their personal benefit and the benefit of the clients. Working here strengthens so many necessary skills no matter what role you are in. When I joined the CS team I was not expecting to have so much fun, while also being challenged. It is a rewarding experience.

Cons

The type of work Centresource provides, being a service company, comes with its challenges. The team at CS does a great job of putting processes in place. With that being said, setting and maintaining client expectations is a tough job and may lead to many internal and external meetings. Working in the agency world is something everyone should do in order to understand both sides of the relationship.

Thank you for the kind words. About a year ago, we adopted the concept of "Unlocking Potential" as a way to describe what we did for clients, each other, and the community. Your post reflects that feeling and I hope CS continues to embody that core value for years to come.

Pros

I've been at Centresource for 5 1/2 years now and I feel very lucky to work day and in and day out with such passionate, talented team members. From the very first day I've been challenged to grow not only into a better engineer, but a better human. These folks make me smarter on a daily basis, and that's what I want out of a job. I also love the inclusive way in which the company is run, bringing employees at all levels into discussions about the best way to approach solving problems. It would be very hard for me to work someone else, given these qualities.

Cons

It's a very fast-paced environment and that's not for everybody. Even those like me who thrive on it have to be very careful to take adequate vacations and time to recharge in order to keep up the pace. For a person who thrives on solving hard problems, the place can be a bit addictive. Because it's a smaller company in a mid sized city, we can't always compete with the coasts on salary. If you're looking for San Francisco or NYC salaries, you might need to adjust your expectations.
