Business Outlook

Pros

Great place to get your feet wet in consulting, especially for those who are the typical Mars profiles of engineers. Have great opportunity to come in and be exposed to business, interesting problems and be surrounded by smart, intelligent people. Learn how to dissect and understanding a business.

Cons

Still owned as a sole proprietorship. What the owner says goes, and this culture is also reflected in some of the other senior management. While the opportunity to learn is great, the people skills are lacking int he firm.
