Pros

Opportunities working with various technologies Around by smart and hardworking people Very good relationship with first and 2nd level managers Working under reasonably pace and pressure most of the time

Cons

Limited growth opportunity mainly due to the T&M industry is not growing Very few experience hires from outside. Too much focus “organic growth” could hurt innovation

Pros

Fairly relaxed work environment Flex time and work/life balance Solid financial position of the company Openness and honesty are generally valued.

Cons

The company values some job functions more than others of comparable skill level in other disciplines. This leads to odd business decisions. Working here is like being on "survivor" - who will be the last one voted off the island? Many people openly say the only reason they keep working here is for the dwindling health benefits. There is an overemphasis on certain protected categories of employees.
