Pros

Very good benefit package. Prestigious projects. Flexibility if needed (for families) They try to make it a casual atmosphere. Lots of social events.

Cons

Low Pay for the amount of work expected from support staff. Unfair pay rates in same positions. Very small raises. Unrealistic overtime is expected. Hard work is overlooked by management and supervisors. The company talks alot about equality for women and work life balance but it is just talk. Project managers dependent on the admin but you will not get the credit for doing their job or making them look good. HR is non responsive and complacent. Some Engineers and PMs can be verbally abusive but no one cares.
