      Good Software Consulting Firm in Media and Financial Services

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Competitive pay, great atmosphere, and good opportunities. They provide proper training to their entry level employees. Your work experience can vary drastically from client to client and project to project. NorthPoint is supportive and offers guidance to help you succeed.

      Cons

      Can require long hours and some travel to the client site. The range of projects is vast and the project you are on can be chosen in a somewhat random way.

      Drawing Straws

      Consultant

      Business outlook

      Pros

      Talented, smart coworkers, and interesting clients. Good opportunity to learn about Financial technology. Fellow grunts are friendly and very approachable.

      Cons

      Heavy on the office politics. Depending on what team you get thrown on, your experience can be wildly different. Compensation wasn't competitive, and salary has increased 56% since leaving. Projects are approached with frantic patching to quickly resolve issues rather that putting effort into fundamental underlying flaws. It was like a daily fire drill. Just point to the left when assigning blame.

      It's the best place to work you've never heard of.

      Business outlook

      Pros

      I've had a lot of great experiences working here. The client list is one of the best you'll find anywhere (New York or otherwise), and I've personally worked on some of the best projects of my career here. I'm constantly learning and I look forward to coming to work a lot more than most people I know. That said, I think the number one reason a CMS developer should consider working here is the overtime policy. If you work more than 40 hours a week and the company can bill for those hours, you are paid for them. It an incentive that keeps project managers honest on estimates and keeps people motivated. It also means the chances of working 12 hour days are pretty slim, which is great for work/life balance, etc.

      Cons

      I have definitely been assigned to projects that weren't properly estimated and examined before I started working on them. I've also been thrown into situations that were well over my head and I had a hard time getting the help that I needed. That said, most of the other downsides are really just downsides of working in consulting. You don't have a constant office, you may not always like the project you're on, but few projects last more than 3 months anyway.
