Pros

Remnants of the best staff in Houston are a joy to work with on projects Current employees enjoy good salaries Bonus structure is good

Cons

Senior management that came in the beginning of 2010 has steadily run personnel and morale in to the ground. I wish I could say this is limited to one group or department but it's company-wide. If you love working weekends, doing the work of three people and being on call 24x7 this is the place for you. Senior management has aggressively cut staff and increased projects so that almost all work is desperately understaffed. Hard work is never recognized and many positions are steadily being outsourced. It is not a happy place to work with an atmosphere of political back-stabbing starting to take over. Many employees that have been with the company for 10+ years are walking away from pension and bonus.

Pros

Incapable and fighting managers are hilarious funny to observe every now and then, in some way, sometimes. Sad but true.

Cons

Always undermanned, low moral standards, frequent conflicts in the office, backstabbers mentality and incapable senior management causing a high employee turnover, a negative corporate culture, high stress levels and an unhealthy place to work.
