Pros

- Decent salary and benefits, although LH makes a bundle on the billable hours margins. Depending on who you work for, the schedule is fairly flexible. - The quarterly hours bonus is a nice perk. - The employees appear to be well qualified with strong experience and are generally helpful and professional. I didn't notice a cut throat environment at all.

Cons

- They don't know whether they are a staffing company or a management consulting company. Business Development and Sales are completely disconnected from the practice partners and managing directors. - If you are on a project and billing, you are okay for as long as you are billing. However, you have no control or visibility into the viability of the contract with the customer. If the customer cuts the contract, you are on the bench and sent wherever you are told....or you are walked out the door with 2 weeks' severance. You have no control over your destiny there, and you have no choice over which clients you serve (or where those clients are located). - As a professional, you are better off contracting as an independent contractor or corp to corp with LiquidHub or another staffing agency, rather than trying to grow your career with LiquidHub. LiquidHub doesn't want employees looking to grow their careers and become leaders. It wants billable hours and a high margin on those billable hours That's all.

Pros

- Competitive salaries with mostly local client base. - Collegial atmosphere among a talented non manager population - It's best to contract with LH as an independent contractor and NOT as a full time employee

Cons

- LiquidHub wants to think of itself as a management consulting company (junior Accenture), but they are a glorified staffing company with a slick website. - LiquidHub's sales team can ONLY sell staffing. They don't know how and don't want to sell management consulting services, since those services are difficult to sell. LiquidHub does not have relationships at the executive levels of a client required to sell that kind of service. - LiquidHub Exec management is confused at best and unethically negligent at worst. Their "Vision" changes each quarter, and the revolving door of management and non-management employees attests to this lousy corporate culture. - LH does not have your back. Once you stop billing, irrespective of your performance, you are shown the door. My recommendation is for any employee to be as mercenary with LH as LH is with its employees. - LH is loathe to pay expenses and will give you every excuse in the book not to pay them. - LH recently changed its once-touted billable hour bonus, so that now it's almost impossible to get paid on that bonus, no matter how many hours of over time you put in.
