Business Outlook

Pros

I was with this company for 5+ years and found it to be a good working environment. At the time of my employment there were a bunch of PMs that were due to retire in the next 3 years and I had an eye on advancing my career in that area. Perk and time-off policies were industry standard for that time.

Cons

No mentorship. No forward vision and 500 of us got laid off on a Thursday. For three years we asked what the strategic vision was, why weren't writing proposals for new work as the major programs were winding down. Then we lost two programs in a month and most of the experience was shown the door.

Business Outlook

Pros

Pay is decent, opportunities to transfer to different areas of the company are there if you're qualified.

Cons

Getting promoted requires you to know someone, raises are not commensurate with responsibility level or skill (i.e. a lot of below average employees get bigger raises than their higher performing coworkers to "even out" the pay between employees in the same section), too many mediocre employees still have jobs when they should have been let go.
