      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Reasonably effective technical education opportunities

      Cons

      Poor executive leadership; opaque or complete lack of processes; very poor organizational structure with an alarming lack of accountability resulting in a highly toxic environment. Incredibly, employees were effectively forced to switch mobile service providers to Boost Mobile.
