Pros

-Mid-size company, so you feel less like a number and more of a teammate (team and location dependent) -decent salaries and benefits, seems generally within the average for the industry -can get in on a good team and work on really cool projects, but again, this is location and team dependent

Cons

-Corporate goals focus on utilization- the burden of getting billable work is placed on the staff, while staff level employees have no power to go get work -raises and promotions are not equitable- women make less than men and all other scientists make less than engineers. In addition, this inequity creates resentment, and that resentment creates massive staff turnover
