Pros
The half-day Friday schedule was nice, but eventually other things made that benefit not worth the other negative items. Safety conscience. Steady employment through sheer momentum as a large company.
Cons
Constant looming burden of Utilization, regardless of how you performed as an employee. No rewards for going above and beyond the expected 'average' performance. No punishment for employees that don't pull their own weight and constantly perform below the expected 'average' performance. Every project consideration was mainly based on the ability to limit company liability. Smaller clients that we had served for years prior to the acquisition were not considered viable to continue to serve. Smaller project fee's not deemed worthy of even considering. Getting a project contract in place could take 6 weeks, while the client is waiting, due to the vast levels of approval that have to be waded through.
