Pros

Job security - given how much trouble they have getting hiring requisitions posted and filled, there is very little worry about stability. Freedom - very little oversight on where/how you do your job, provided you're doing it. Working remote is very common for PMs.

Cons

Bare bones - most offices are strapped for resources. Sales is directed to sell at all costs, but most times there is not enough Operations to back it up. Uneven distribution of talent/resources to offices - if you're in one of the "good" offices such as Chicago or Tampa, you'll have everything you need to succeed. The rest of us? Not so much. Benefits - Health is pretty bad. 401k match is a mystery every year, and the percent is not that great even when they do it. PTO /Holiday is pretty skimpy, especially for the hourly people like techs.

Pros

Provided opportunity to work on some very large technically complex systems that provided multiple challenges to be able to close.

Cons

Poor Engineering and QC, often re-engineered and fixed in the field Little respect for senior level employees that successfully built the SPL side of the merged firm. Unreasonable staffing/schedule expectations. Unhappy staff and clients resulted.
