Pros

Large company with good opportunities for entry level engineers, and some potential mobility because of the number of offices they have. Has all the normal benefits of a large company.

Cons

The company does not value its employees or their capabilities and specialties. You are just a name on a spreadsheet and unless you are 90% billable you are under scrutiny to be laid off. The companies growth is by mergers and acquisitions. As a result, there is constant turmoil within the company and constant downsizing and there is little opportunity for older more experience professional. They also treat their customers poorly from a management and procedural aspect and their ethics are less that appropriate, causing customers to not want to deal with the bureaucracy.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
