Business Outlook
Pros
Good support for telecommuters; treats experienced engineers almost as well as equivalent managers. Tends to be fairly generous with compensation for experienced/top personnel. Interesting technical work; some extremely experienced staff (20 years experience not unusual). "Big customers that are willing to pay big bucks for big solutions." Good training allocations, although internal is strongly preferred to external training.
Cons
Horrible (but improving) industry rep. Huge amounts of legacy software. Peculiar corporate culture in transition to a more "IBMish" style. Can be oddly cheap or confused at times, although there are a number of projects underway to address such problems.
