Pros

The budget for training is decent. If you're in the in-crowd, you're solid and protected.

Cons

Personal feelings get in the way of business more often than not. The Attack and Penetration team used to be a really solid group, but with current management it's turned in to a pentest puppy mill. Promoting from within is great, if you expand outside of your friends, and actually train managers to be managers prior to them taking on a team.

Pros

Use to have lots of great people. People who cared about the work they were able to do on a daily basis.

Cons

infighting between different service branches one department being the 'golden child and building services that are already being delivered by another department. The sales team just wants to sell, but they don't know services. Many of them only understand selling product. Lack of communication past middle management. Only get half the story and unsure what is really happening.
