Poor project management, bad resource management

Low pay, no pay raise. 2 increases in 10 years, a 5% pay cut in 2009. Less than 1% increase in the flowing 12 years. An IT sweatshop. I would recommend not working at this company as a whole.

It was a good company to work at Cape Kennedy

I work installing equipment for a government job. It was hard work with no air condition. Eventually, the A/C was installed and the job became much easier.

Pros

Pizza at the end of the project.

Cons

Too far to drive.

Verbal abuse from customers and lies from management

I worked in the call center for life insurance plans. CSC has recently taken over customer service for a few Life Insurance companies and there were multiple issues with the transfer of data, causing customers to call in irate and swearing and yelling. This occurred multiple times a day. Separately, but noteworthy, I was told I had to work in the call center for a year before I could transfer to a different department within the company. Once I finally did transfer, I learned that wasn't true. Additionally CSC caps the raises you can get, so even though I transferred to a position that would have much higher pay than the call center, I got paid like a customer service rep.

Great people to work with

Enjoyed working with the people and clients on a daily basis. CSC Management tend to think about them and not what you do. Most employees went over 7 years with no increase in pay or even incentives. Management has changed since I decided to leave so maybe it has become a much better place to work. You are expected to pretty much work 10% more than your 40 hours work week even thought it is not spelled out. Management a lot of the time do not back you up, then tend to take the Client side for the sake of the contract

Productive, Caring, Team Orientated and Fun work place.

On a typical day we work as a team and cross train as a team. We keep busy to and enjoy working and learning with each other from different departments to get the job done. On a few occasions employees had personal issues and the HR department and Management Team came together and help solved the issue. These different issues is what kept me working at CSC for over 10 years.

Pros

Team Orientated Work Place

Cons

CSC lost the contract so job avalibility was limited.

Sweat shop

tied to the phone but no support to help answer difficult questions. Yelled at by clinical personnel often. Support is the operable word of what is missing for the front line agents. Turnover suffers for that reason.

Never really paid enough.

I was at least 25% under paid when I left after almost 10 years. I truly loved working there but just couldn’t afford to work there after a while anymore. Left a lot of good people and many accomplishments! Very sad.

Pros

Opportunity to learn new skills and apply them at soE point.

Cons

Pay rate was at least 25% below the national average.

Working Environments was Pleasant

Education and Support I get on the job was very good. Cross training is available to you if you like to climb up.The company allows you to improve yourself.

Pros

Occasionally free lunch
Was this review helpful?

Very little free time, constant OT for projects

Beyond under-staffed and no compensation for the extra hours worked, we worked every weekend for the better part of the two years I was there. Turnover is not a concern to the management whatsoever.Flexible hours

Pros

Flexible hours but far too many

Cons

Way too few staff to handle the work load effectively.

management is a complete joke and do little to nothing to help those succeed who are doing their jobs for them

Initial advancement opportunities were there to get into the functional "senior" type roles. In these roles, you are typically doing the managers job due to their lack of knowledge, unwillingness to do their job, or a combination of both. Once in those roles, good luck getting out. Management threatens to stop advancement opportunities and while maybe not all, or even most, my manager was a racist.

Pros

close commute

Cons

management has no clue how to manager or help employees be successful

Great team work and great management.

I enjoyed working at CSC (as contractor) because we all were a team with the same goal in mind. Managers and supervisors helped me to succeed in my job.

Pros

Great team work

Cons

It was only a temporary job
Was this review helpful?

Dont

Same pay for 4 years. No opportunity to move up when they just constantly hire temps to do the job you earn. Management wasn’t terrible but some focused on ridiculous things instead of the root of the problem.

Great for the inexperienced

This rating is for a position I held with CSC in the early 2000s - the company may have changed/improved since. My position was technical support for DuPont corporation. There were individuals who worked near me who either were on constant personal calls or surfing inappropriate websites - I ended up picking up the slack on a constant basis, while being unappreciated by the supervisor. The pros - if you are new to tech positions, you can learn a lot (but not because you are trained, but because you figure it out along the way). The interview I had was amusing as well, as those who were interviewing me were leaned back in their chairs, and seemed to be in a partial coma state. Overall - it was a job, but it was also sadly a joke too.

Pros

learning tech (though not via training but due to trial & error).

Cons

management - co-workers - and lack of appreciation for those who actually work during their shift.

They closed

They closed the company down, but I enjoyed working for them. The call center setting, the co workers, & my supervisors made me look forward to going to work everyday.

I feel a company or team is only its people who make that company.

The overall is positive and meaningful. Culture and environment had been cooperative and resources support the leaders to stay on the course of major activities.

Pros

Right subjects

Cons

Need examples

Company moved

Company closed their doors in Vermont and moved to Kentucky. I had to opportunity to move with the company but refused to move to Kentucky. Had flexibility with time off. Enjoyed the atmosphere surrounding the card production facility.

Pros

decent work environment

Cons

Worked based on a year to year contract with US government

Contract

Don't know if they will keep you on when contract time comes and also doesn't let you know until last minute. Fix things that other people had no business touching
