Not sure how this company stays competitive....

Pros

You have the opportunity to meet some really bright people

Cons

Depending on the group you are with you could be working long hours or have nothing to do. A lot of favoritism within groups and a lot of times management don't see eye to eye with each other which results in conflicting messages to workers. Compensation is horrible and career opportunities are rare so a lot of the bright people who work at the company leave due to frustration.

Pros

None, except for a short work-week.

Cons

It's been a year since the President was forced out for having a new vision for ATCC, and the organization has suffered in that time. Many of the most talented employees have left, and contracts have been lost or are endangered.
