Pros

Not one that I can think of management is non existent if your lazy this is the company for you no one cares.

Cons

More then 8 years at BB and many undelivered promises company has gone from bad to how are they still in the telecom business. They have successfully managed to push anyone with talent out the door and kept all the losers expecially in operations.

Business Outlook

Pros

5+ years working directly for BBNS on overseas and local Government security contracts. I had a good senior project manager who stood by his employees and interesting projects to work on The compensation was decent and benefits were comparable.

Cons

Not much in the way of any efforts to keep/place employees after contract loss. Layoffs are a part of the modern contracting workforce and this company is not immune. Employee contract turnover rate was high and a very real disconnect between upper management and employees created challenging working conditions.
