Pros

Flexible schedules and some opportunity to advance, but it is limited. Benefits package is very generous.

Cons

Senior management consists of too many ex-military with an air of arrogance to match. Promotion of CMMI capability is a marketing ploy that is poorly executed. People are treated poorly when the going gets rough.

Pros

Generally, adequate pay and health packages. Promotions are rare, although merit raises are given. 401K program and company stock options are good.

Cons

Pettiness at lower management levels. Being a professional in job approach and to colleagues are somewhat laxed. Under qualified and partisan supervisors.
