Pros

There are none except it pays the bills

Cons

Upper management is full of incompetent overpaid people who stare at billable projections and decide who to lay off by a spreadsheet. They are completely clueless. They should concentrate on getting work, these are suppose to be the so called experts with the most experience and technical expertise. Instead the employees are responsible to get there own work. Office managers are just as incompetent and don't do a single thing to get new work. They wait for the phone to ring or call other offices if work is available. Wow! That's a genius marketing plan, I can see why they make 6 figures!?
