Pros

Fun work, typical Project Management (communicating with many departments within the organization and with the customer)

Cons

Heavy work load, company downsizing which led to more work being distributed to existing personnel, everything driven by the bottom line, Always on call, any problem, the project manager gets called, poor and expensive health benefits, poor salary, no 401k match, not much advancement potential, political office environment

Pros

Some of the people are great. Close to home. Good hours.

Cons

Not having the right equipment . Bad pay increases (however I am personally ok with where I am at pay wise - just have taken on more work and not really seeing the benefits of having done that - 1% accross the board - that is what I mean by bad pay increases.). Unreasonable demands. Have priorities messed up. Absolutely no work/life balance. If I knew than what I know now I would not have taken the job.

Stable but not growing

Business Outlook

Pros

People I worked with. Flexiblity and availability of mgmt. Stable company that is trying to counteract a dying industry.

Cons

Company will never see a great growth, but I don't think will tank either. Pay is well below average for job titles.
