Pros

IT department is very high tech throughout the whole company: Yammer, Outlook 2014, Office 365, Lynx and webcast and more...can't keep up with all the current high tech processes. Benefits are amazing

Cons

Administrative staff beware: Their recognition for staff is lacking; supervisors reviewing their staff that are in other towns, not in the same office. Pay scale for raises really stink for admins. If you get a 5 on a review, your review gets put into a pool of hundreds, literally, of other admin's of different levels, skills, education, etc. A panel from the corporate office decides if you get a 5 or not, and salary is based on an overall % of all the other admins from all offices all over the Unit you work for (Southeast, Northeast, etc.). Turns out to about .40 or less an hour for an annual raise. Really??? Thanks God the benefits make up for this nonsense.

Pros

Sadly, I can not think of any

Cons

Seems as though they will promise you anything to get you to accept the offer even when they do not plan to follow-through on any of them no accountability among senior management very little (if any) communication between divisions and management and junior staff project managers seem to hog all of the billable work that comes out of their projects leadership seems to only care about making the numbers for the bonus - at any cost
