Business Outlook

Pros

Technology is on forefront, they try to innovate their way out of problems, attempts at creating standards, if you are the live at work type- you will succeed here, initial pay is decent-raises are awful

Cons

Incredibly long hours regardless of your level in the company, expected to work weekends, regional top level management does not know a thing about operations and passes off personal failures onto the individual projects who pay the price. Always in legal battles at the end of projects with owners and subcontractors. John F should know the truth on his projects, but regional management will never allow it.
