Pros

When I was recruited to Schellman a few years ago, I kept hearing things that seemed too good to be true. My experience since coming onboard has lived up to the hype--and then some. Leadership is sincerely involved and interested in day-to-day operations and cares about people at the staff and senior levels. The work is interesting, challenging (but not too much so), and varied. Benefits--including a 10% 401(k) match--are unparalleled in the industry and keep getting better. If you're tired of the Big Four grind, Schellman is truly outstanding.

Cons

As with other information security services firms (including the Big Four), hours can sometimes be long (although never as long as I've worked during previous Big Four stints) and clients challenging. At the end of the day, however, the pros of working at Schellman definitely outweigh the cons.

Pros

Management frequently improves benefits. Management really knows the business well. The company has historically been well insulated from economic downturns. So many opportunities to stand out and make a name for yourself

Cons

Data driven decisions still a work in progress. Long term vision is likely 1 ish year.

Pros

The people. Peers are great to work with and very supportive. Some of the leaders in the teams are as well. Perks were GREAT but have slowly been taken away or the costs went up.

Cons

Where do I begin? Wholesale executive turnover. Technology projects that we're supposed to say are awesome but aren't really that great. They take up more time to figure out than they're worth and we know those are meant to take our jobs. AI, offshore, temp labor. No thanks. It was a place I loved working at but has slowly just become a job that makes me feel like I should be watching for somewhere else to go. Just in case. The culture has changed quite a bit too. It used to feel like a place where we all wanted to work together but that's slowly fading.
