Business Outlook

Pros

Coworkers are personable and fellow engineers are reliable for learning about new/unfamiliar topics

Cons

All employees are loaded with the maximum amount of work they can handle and still meet deadlines. Upper management preaches "customer first," but middle management pushes for as many projects to be brought to a billable state by the arbitrary monthly deadlines. The result is strange billing practices that result in drawn out and compounding projects.
