Pros

I worked on a ton of interesting projects, some with great project managers and others with lackluster project managers. The benefits are great.

Cons

I was hired during the recession so my pay was low. In addition, I was required to have a masters. There was a raise freeze the first year I was there. I finally got a dismal raise, but left for other reasons. I found out upon leaving the students from my alma matter three years below me were offered more without a masters than I was paid upon leaving the company. People who got ahead with little effort were either the relatives of clients or upper management.

Pros

The people and the work we do.

Cons

None really. Could use better pay consistencies and recognition of those who do well and are rewarded as such.
