Cons
They paint a target on your back after you're 55 - all of a sudden you become a burden. The rating system is impossible to succeed in - if you do its because you're someone's golden boy or girl. Once you get a bad rating, it's almost impossible to make an improvement. High reliance on contractors for many jobs. Very limited capital in some businesses - makes for a very boring job if you're a good engineer. Pay levels in manufacturing are lower than competitors.
