Pros

Good culture, not much politics, the group IMPACT helps to nurture young engineers, strong bond between young engineers.

Cons

slow career development, promotion based on number of years of experience but not your skills and capability. Job instability, your job is highly dependent on the number of projects available. When the times were bad, employees fighting for jobs to do.
