Pros

Work life balance is very good.

Cons

The division I worked for was managed like a poorly run small business. There are a lot of procedural issues and production problems. It is also very evident, that if you are not a part of the inner group, you have no chance of advancement or even be respected.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good technical skills, interesting projects, capable staff, adequate compensation and benefits; potential to work outside of your local area; bonus program (for key staff)

Cons

Extremely arrogant attitude towards clients, staff, and competitors - they know more than the client on how work should be done. High billing rates and utilization requirements price them out of work. Guaranteed program alienates customers and has latent liabilities (losses)
