Pros

Line managers and delivery heads actually care about their directs. This flows all the way down to the projects as well. Unfortunately 'caring' is not an employment criterion.

Cons

Delivery senior management seems to have no say in employee compensation. Can't reward good performers since they need to 'prove' why the employee is good. No leadership or direction from the E-class heads of the service unit. The unit just seems to be coasting along and surviving due to sheer luck.

Pros

Good Salary, Benefits, and Excellent Vacation and Holiday Schedule. (Bank holidays and Christmas through New Year's as part of Holiday). Telecommuting encouraged and reimbursements for all work related expenses from cell phone to ISP to land line. Telecommuting worked well for both employees and SUN. Ability to work with new technologies. Breadth of hardware and software solutions and pioneering projects should make most technology enthusiasts very happy. The Good Guys for open source.

Cons

Too many re-orgs and changes in strategy and direction. Too much reliance on partners for delivering key services and solutions that should have been handled in-house via Professional Services. Too many layoff rounds that affected morale. Software for a while was always less important than hardware and treated as such. Too many hardware folks trying to run software with mixed results. Open Source model was hard to make money off of. Some poor execution and missteps.
