Business Outlook

Pros

There are on-site opportunities. That is all.

Cons

Managers are morons and lack basic human sentiments. You'll NEVER be appreciated for the good work that you do. Appraisals are a joke. Work pressure is supplied to you in generous quantity. Projects are never handled well. The majority of the clients is unhappy. Your weekend day-offs are at their mercy. Or so they seem to take for granted.
