Pros

Motivated technical people with challenging and interesting work. Good salary and benefits. Ability to directly talk to customers from all levels of the organization.

Cons

Top heavy management organization. One size fits all mentality. Marketing group is AWOL. Management has damaged the brand. Outsourcing but claiming it is to be "closer to the customer".
