Pros

Great Network of People and Knowledge

Cons

Many Silos - Legacy Groups took ownership of opportunities they never hunted for. Hard to align needed skillsets in regions needed to capture opportunities and to train technicians for needed tasks to win jobs.

Pros

Very nice co-workers Gives me a place to be for 9-10 hrs a day

Cons

No raises Extreme micro- management Continuous layoffs leaving fewer people to not only handle the missing people's work, but also the all the extra work thrown at them through the consolidation of the businesses. Working for a boss who is extremely unprofessional with employees, forgets what direction is given one day & then rants like a lunatic the next day when you followed the orders. HR is a huge joke No opportunities for advancement

Pros

Good integrator in the Federal market

Cons

Very difficult work environment. Beg to get anything done. Too many silos and decision makers. It takes at least 15 people to get anything done.
