Very frustrating

Pros

the people - from the legacy company, who were here when we got bought up

Cons

have turned engineers into accountants; incredibly beuracratic; upper managment has no integrity; spend millions on internal PR, but don't support the people on the ground in any meaningful way; have spent millions buying up companies, then drive the best talent away by tormenting them to deliver numbers above all else; what managment says and what they do is a complete contradiction.

Good place to learn.

Pros

Many opportunities to grow professionally. Opportunities for project work are available nationally and internationally. Salary and benefits are typically very good. Stable organization.

Cons

Not many downsides. Following the merger of the legacy companies, there was a lot more corporate bureaucracy and procedures imposed. May be stifling to senior-level professionals accustomed to discretionary lattitude.
