Business Outlook

Pros

Good salary. Good catered food. Nice courtyards. Gym on campus.

Cons

They lay people off every 3 months. Depending on where you land, you will either be working on projects 16 hours a day including weekends until its finished or doing nothing (while will put you on the chopping block) Also the companys going out of business. Just look at the stock, it speaks for itself.
