Pros

* reasonable work hours; almost always 40, unless you want to do more.

Cons

* below market salary rates * lack of mentoring / direction for new employees * lots of arbitrary deadlines * culture of poor communication. employees on the ground have little chance of knowing what's actually going on. * lots of administrative overhead (detailed timesheets, status reports, a fair number of unnecessary meetings) * large bureaucracy makes it difficult to get things done * management never makes changes in response to feedback
