Pros

Very talented individuals, some really great projects, good benefits for families.

Cons

Far too top heavy. While profit is of course important and brings good things, they've no idea how to encourage employees and PM's to achieve them. There's so much scrutiny on every penny, expenditure, and hour charged to a project, you're scared to take on a PM role. Not much advancement opportunity, and at that, not sure you'd want to move up anyway - then you'd be in the crosshairs even more. Haven't had a raise beyond 2% in years while big shots continually book first class flights and upper class hotel rooms while traveling on overhead budgets.
