Pros

Co-Workers, in the office I worked in the manager's cared about their employees, they have great activities, and monthly meetings to keep the employees up to date on where the company is at, and the project's they are working on.

Cons

The company is still laying off employees, and health insurance is going up every year. The company is going through a lot of changes.

Business Outlook

Pros

Field work hours are somewhat flexible, allowing employees to start early and leave earlier. They provide a good amount of training the first year of employment. The people are very friendly.

Cons

Poor communication and delegation. Inexperienced employees are left without mentors after formal training in completed. The lack of mid level employees perpetuates the problem. The offices tend to be focused on a single market, therefore there isn't much diversity in the work that's done.

Not top-tier for employee satisfaction

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Some very capable coworkers, some very interesting projects. Some opportunity for career progress and geographical transfers for low and mid-level technical professionals.

Cons

Upper management pays lip service to employee satisfaction, but profitability is always the 900 pound gorilla in the room. The very top tier direct owners always seem to be financially looked out for, but the ESOP has not benefitted rank and file employees for several years.
