Pros

Interesting projects. Global company. Privately held. Opportunities.

Cons

Lots of older workers who want the status quo despite flat line revenue growth for the past five years. Lots of fiefdoms. Older workers are in management because of engineering successes yet do not have a clue as to how to manage. Old school. Poor systems - nothing integrated. Newer workers are better but overall staff is B quality due to old school system for retention. Name is not widely known so perspective employers are not that impressed as I am finding out.

Pros

AutoCAD experience, Programming experience, large control systems are pretty cool. Friendly people.

Cons

Boring, corporate hoops can be annoying. I would recommend really liking zoning out and doing AutoCAD because otherwise you're going to be bored and lonely.
