Pros

-some folks outside of projects are cool. Also depends on your business unit and office space -flexibility on hours although OT is often the case

Cons

-If you like the ESOP this could be a plus but for new comers ESOP doesn’t add value. -lack of culture -top heavy (too many PD/VPs) -pigeonholed into select types of projects. Good luck if you want to keep a diverse work portfolio. If you’re good at one thing even though you don’t want to continue that route they will keep you there. -they will move up someone without experience faster than those who have experience -heard they are doing better on pay but when someone with less responsibilities and experience is making more than you it’s not a fun time -lack of communication and understanding from management. They wonder why folks are leaving but don’t make a change -lots of policies and procedure without guidance from management. Said policies and procedures are often forgotten and people do their own thing -training programs aren’t there they throw you into something and see if you sink and if they do have them they are not executed well -you will go far if you’re favored by upper management. If you aren’t good luck getting promotions and career development without having to fight for reasons -if you really look at the reviews the glowing reviews came from Upper management not from employees

Pros

Most folks are great people. There's always work which helps people stay busy.

Cons

Leaders are not engaged. Project managers are more focused on their work and are less likely to mentor young professionals. It's very hard to understand how to progress with your career. Folks often become pigeonholed and kept back from new opportunities which becomes the reason for missing out on promotion.

Pros

- excellent benefits and programs - polite coworkers - decent pay - long-term opportunities (many people have worked there for decades)

Cons

- a little crowded at the top---not always room for advancement - skews a little older, can be isolating if you're younger - not much else, it's really decent
