Great Benefits!!!

Pros

The people are intelligent but yet easy going and fun to work with. The benefits, the offices, parking and genuine work fulfillment are ranked super high on everyone's list.

Cons

Working with cost codes and having to always have one for every hour of work was a pain and not having a bucket for non project work was not fair. If your timesheet wasn't filled up then you didn't get paid.

The company has a good reputation. Most staff do quality work. Great alternative to a university setting. Good benefits.

Cons

The programs are fairly decentralized, and mant managers don't have strong management skills. The higher ups do not embrace change.
