Pros

Learning opportunities for Consultants are adequate, anyone who is driven and wants more responsibilities can thrive as long as you put your head down and do your work well. Definitely a sink or swim type of company. This can be either a pro or con depending on how you look at it.

Cons

The consultants are seemingly responsible for doing most of the work for the clients including implementing, configuring, testing, project managing, training new hires, and much more. Because of this, work-life balance is nearly impossible if you don’t want to fail to implement the software with customers. Clients are not discouraged from reaching out directly to the consultants on late nights and weekends to resolve issues. Management is likely threatened by strong female employees. No female leadership in the company is evidence of this and lack of trust for and acknowledgement for the females who are hard working. In Development, Sales, and Professional Services departments, no girl has been employed for more than 2 years, many have quit after the first year.

Pros

Really fun company events. There is opportunity to learn a lot. There are some genuinely good, smart people who want to make the company better. Pay is good.

Cons

Deposco has a long ways to go before I would recommend anyone join their professional services team, for a few reasons: 1. Work life balance is not respected and nonexistent. Pros are seen as cash cows and are treated as nothing more. You're always staffed on at least one implementation requiring anywhere between 40-70 hours of your weekly time, while simultaneously expected to support multiple support clients requiring usually between 5-25 hours of your weekly time. This is due to Deposco refusing to use a support team, like most consulting firms. Why hire a support team when you can just ask your pros team to do the work of 2-3 people every week? And the weeks you spend working 70 hours with no help while your personal life crashes around you? Those are applauded. That will get you a "shout out" at the weekly meeting, and maybe a nice email from management. AKA - it gets you nothing. Not only this, but you're also fully responsible to spend hours tracking time, monitoring other's time, doing project management, testing new code, and training new college grads in a hope that one of them can get up to speed in time to actually help you out on your workload. All must be done while maintaining 80% billability. So all the hours you have to spend testing and fixing whatever the newest release broke have to happen outside of the work day if you want to meet your billability. And if you don't meet your billability? You WILL be publicly shamed by the CEO in front of the entire company. 2. To get ahead at Deposco you have to be the type of guy who the CEO/upper management (did I mention they're ALL white males?) wants to get a beer with at a sports bar. Not that type of guy? Prepare to be made fun of, ignored, not promoted etc, regardless of your work outshining your peers. Notice I say type of "guy" -- that's because females are basically only hired to be looked at, so this doesn't apply to them anyways. The whole thing is set up like a giant fraternity in the south -- so if that's your thing and you don't care about getting grey hair at the age of 22 or having a life outside of work, this may be for you. Also, the benefits aren't great - usually 3 weeks vacation and the bare minimum company holidays, no 401k matching, mediocre health plan...

Pros

You get paid, decent benefits and location.

Cons

- For a small workforce, most employees to do acknowledge your presence - Very depressing workplace, sometimes too quiet. Most colleagues try too hard how not to help and provide as less detail as possible - Need to give a week of notice to take a half day off - Very arrogant management style, senior management is barely reachable - In less than a year I saw multiple employees fired or leaving the organization. - No flexibility on hours, I was told otherwise before joining. Equity is worthless
