Pros

In the office (if you end up working at the office rather than at a client's office) everyone is extremely nice. Especially MTARs, whose job it essentially is, to be nice.

Cons

-Low pay in terms of market value in the area -terrible benefits -dishonest leadership and hiring practices (promising bonuses and benefits that were rescinded/never delivered upon) -FTEs are prevented from joining another company -Nearly zero sick leave, extremely little vacation -Most accruals (401k, vacation, etc.) don't kick in until you've been there for a year - which is unlikely to happen. -Managers often expect far more work than is reasonable, and don't understand the development process. -Managing and balancing up to 3-5 time sheets at a time (all of which must agree). -Does not even have licenses for the software they support and develop on -zero upward mobility -nearly zero chance of a reasonable wage increase

This is Bill VanSickle, CEO and Co-Founder of AIM Consulting. I wanted to reply to you directly to personally apologize for your experience at AIM, let you know that we take posts like yours very seriously, and ask you for more information that I can take action on. We’ve built an honorable and good company full of people that care about AIM, their co-workers, and our clients. I personally oversee our compensation and benefits programs and know that we have one of the very best benefit packages in our industry. We must not have done a good job in helping you understand our compensation, bonus, and benefits program. I’d really appreciate the opportunity to sit down with you and explain the 2015 plans available to you, show you the benchmark detail we have that compares our programs with our competitors, and give you a preview of the 2016 comp and benefits plan that we are rolling out on our benefits anniversary (4/1/16). Your comment about a lack of integrity cuts to the heart of our core covenants and culture and I would appreciate you telling me exactly what promises or commitments we didn’t deliver on. Integrity is a way of life with AIM and it is non-negotiable. Violating this tenant would lead to disciplinary action, up to and including termination and I hope you will honor me by sharing more about your experience so that I can take action where needed. With respect to upward mobility, we must not have communicated the growth opportunities that are literally everywhere at AIM. Our people ARE our most important asset and we pride ourselves on being able to help our employees achieve significant growth from a personal development, financial, and organizational perspective. We have grown over 70% in 2015 and our only bottleneck to future growth is identifying capable and focused leaders to help facilitate that growth. Regardless of all that I believe to be true, I want to reiterate that I am personally disappointed by your experience and beliefs about AIM and hope you give us a chance to make it right for you and others that come into our business in the future. Please contact me at bvansickle@aimconsulting.com. Sincerely, Bill VanSickle

Pros

- Nice office - A few smart and talented employees

Cons

- Tight-knight, "family" vibe: good if you've been there 15 years, but buyer beware if you haven't. - Poor project delivery, lack the ingredients to get there - Leadership clueless - internal politics requires them to sell out AIM to please the parent company, the Addison Group - Nearly weekly firing of employees creates unhealthy environment
