Pros

Working in a combination of leading edge technologies, combined with yesterdays old iron create numerous challenges. One never knows on a day to day basis what one will be dealing with.

Cons

As a 24 by 7 organisation, the limited staff in my group create interesting rostering challenges. Training and skill enhancment can be a very real problem.

Pros

Great big company with lots of oppurtunities. They treat you very very well, soo many great events through year, i.e. the carvinal, that was alot of fun. But as a co-op you dont get to contribute much or show lots of your talent, u come and then you go, not much time for learning. But enjoy while you are there, consider 16 month internship if you want to get some really good experience. Also its very far from most the residential areas, quite a commute.. But stll a nice place to work

Cons

Its very big, u can even get lost sometimes
