Business Outlook

Pros

Rank and file colleagues are helpful to one another. Some very smart people to learn from. Ability to work remote/flexible hours very helpful. Worked on newer, latest technologies - good learning opportunities and experiences if you're in the right groups.

Cons

No raises, despite performance or accomplishments. Difficult to move between groups for career development. Poor work/life balance - worked an awful lot of evenings and weekends to meet deadlines. Global team meant that meetings could be held at 11pm at night and a colleague could be working during the night to collaborate with offshore team members. This occurred too frequently.
