Pros

If you are into technical growth, I would recommend it.

Cons

No one talks to each other. Everyone is backstabbing. No one is valued--you are a cog in a machine that can be replaced easily. Also, I am not saying I was the most creative person ever, but I always felt that I was hired to be the exact replica of my boss. My ideas didn't matter unless it was exactly what she was thinking. I was constatnly met with "That's not what I would do..."

Not a happy place to be

Pros

There are still some very talented and bright people to work with.

Cons

- The is an almost absolute lack of communications from senior management. It's like working for a US company back in the 50's and 60's with an autocratic leadership with no feedback loop from below. The expertise and thought leadership in project management that the company had prior to the Caritor aquisition has been thrown away. Senior management from Caritor is learning on-the-job how to run an organization that's more than 5 times as big as they ran before. And because they had a miniscule US workforce before aquiring Keane, they don't understand the US workforce. I would even say that they have a certain level of contempt for the US workforce and believe them to lazy and overpaid. Not a fun place to be (unless you're below the radar at a client site).

Pros

Keane (don't know about the Caritor side yet) has been exceptionally fair, just and respectful of me as an indivdual, and has helped me tremendously through learning programs to develop personally -- so long as I take the initiative.

Cons

There are no advancement opportunities beyond small team leadership for Ontario-based employees. Pay is considerably below market rate for people that stay, as compensation increases are almost unheard of.
