Pros

You can't beat the benefits. Their heath insurance has a great medical coverage and the company covers most of the expense. The initial salary is usually very good.

Cons

The management does not care about it's employees. The only concern is the budget. You have no opportunity to move up within the company unless you are one of the perfect ones (or have an inside with upper managment). They do not care about how much work you are accomplishing. The only concern is if you submit your time each week, complete training on time and make it appear like you are doing something. If you fail at any one of those (one time), you will not be able to advance in the company.

Pros

Was a great company 5 years ago. Declined heavily in the last 3 years. Way too many lay offs and restructuring.

Cons

Favoritism. Manager has no answers looks to someone they manage for answers. This person gatekeeps information and is overall toxic. Contradictory instructions. Managers will rely on bad information and then different managers will give you conflicting orders. If you try to go to the upper managers they will terminate you and lie about it. You could be asked to solve problems you were not hired for.
