Pros

Serco emphasizes customer service. It's the way the company is adjusting to the sequester, and increased competition for a smaller federal budget. Emphasis is on supporting billable contracts and due to it's parent organization the potential customer base is global, not national.

Cons

Too much reliance on the federal government as a 'sole-source customer.' There has been a concerted effort to move into other markets, but without a long history of support.

Pros

You get to directly impact clients' success. "Decent" pay for the location.

Cons

Leadership will shift blame onto teams instead of taking accountability for their own shortcomings, and Program Managers won't take the time to seek clarification, leading to misinformed decisions and unfair outcomes. They are more focused on internal politics and protecting their seat than recognizing or rewarding actual contributions. You can work hard for years with consistently strong performance and still be passed over for promotion in favor of someone who has built the right relationships with management, even if the have not proven themselves yet. Support is subpar. Employees often spend more time troubleshooting issues themselves than receiving timely or effective assistance.
