Pros

Globally recognized, large company can win projects easily, lots of resources. Some really good people working there.

Cons

Way too political and almost gossipy, long uncompensated hours, women are overlooked and ignored, certain management only knows how to intimidate not motivate. Those Same Managers will listen to gossip about someone's work habits and assume it's true, not follow through and discuss with that person or give them an opportunity to confront their accusers. It's never professional to talk about someone's work performance with their co-workers but not with them............especially when the co-workers are saying that what he's heard is inaccurate.
