Pros

Lots of windows give lots of natural light

Cons

There is not enough work to keep you busy. There is not enough licenses to do your work. Bucket of crabs!! Everyone will throw you under the bus to advance their career here. There is constant turnover. Take note of the male to female ratio and know there is a reason for it. This is the worst place I have ever worked. They force out those that will not fall in line. There are lots of unhappy employees here, waiting to get out. Nepotism and the buddy system run Horrocks. Unless you are a relative or neighbor of the owner, you will go nowhere here. Don't expect anything long term here. They will promise you the world but those promises prove empty time and time again. Managers continually do not meet deadlines or stick to budgets, but pass the blame on to you for their lack of planning. Managements opinion is if you are not working 10+ hours of overtime every week, you are not a good employee. I do not recommend this company to anybody.

Pros

Great benefits, You will most likely get paid more than the average engineering firm as far as marketing goes. Comp time for overhead employees is unique in this industry.

Cons

Lots of leadership changes in the Colorado office over the past few years. Because of this, there is a "make it or break it" kind of attitude in that region. As the only marketer in that office, there is little room for career growth or mentorship, unlike other regions of the company. Current leadership is very unwillingly to entertain outside opinions or perspectives. As a marketer, it was difficult to manage local expectations with corporate expectations and you are often told to "choose a side." This office takes "loyalty" very seriously and if you are seen as being on corporate's side or if they think you are sharing their operations with the corporate team, your job will be made very difficult. Women employees beware, your opinions will be minimized, regardless of experience or authority. Unless you're ready to "bend the knee" this is not the right place for you.
