Pros

My team is very tight knit and we back each other up when we need assistance. No real drama and that's the way I like it. Great work-life balance. Diversified company with many sectors of federal and state funded work projects.

Cons

Senior sales managers sometimes don't do their jobs to the fullest and this impacts the proposal process. Not much except for a slap on the wrist and then it happens all over again.
