Pros

All the people I worked with where like family. Up until they let me go I actually liked going to work. I was completely blindsided.

Cons

Moral very low. Never heard anything from management, good or bad. Upper management very disconnected from the worker bees. There are way to many projects managers. I would get emails from 3 different PM'S asking the same question.

Pros

Supportive peers and lower level management

Cons

The insurance is outrageous. The pay is not competitive or transparent, there appears to be no real pay scale, or top pay for technicians. The annual merit review process is a waste of everyone’s time because merit based raises are based on pre-determined budgets and “no one can exceed expectations”.
