Pros

Decent salaries, some nice people

Cons

Just cut back benefits; 10 days of sick leave reduced to 3 days of additional leave. No mobility. Grows by too-rapid acquisition, without integrating the people in the acquired companies, leaving dangling branches outside core competency. Emphasis on growth for growth's sake, at an unsustainable rate. No training opportunities. No test equipment. Internal IT very, very poor.

Pros

The work was interesting, the clients were great, and it's work you can get behind in the energy industry.

Cons

Management was a nightmare. One of those jobs that you tell horror stories about.

Pros

Pay is decent if you can demand better pay up front. Merit raises aren't really a thing. Promotions are few and far between. Healthcare options are poor (3 choices, top choice is too expensive but the other two provide terrible benefits).

Cons

Poor company culture. No backbone when it comes to standing up to our lawless government. No respect for LGBTQ employees. No respect for its workers, even the high performers. Mass layoffs! It used to be that this company would just reassign you if a contract ended, but now they're laying good people off left and right.
