Pros

Positive message and vision from CEO and SVP

Cons

Anything positive stops at the SVP/GM level. Lots of talk but those who walk the talk are few and far between. Basically a body shop with no interest in training & development, inclusion & diversity or salary equity. Billable or killable seems to be their m.o. and retention is definitely a challenge. They speak of a culture of caring, but that is not evident with line management unless you are one of their mates.
