Pros

The employees seemed very happy. Benefits start your first day. There is a lot of room for advancement. If you do not want to become a manager you can become a subject matter expert.

Cons

No cons, other then the remoteness of the location but the office environment seemed very professional and the people seemed very happy.

Avoid this company if you are a dreamer

Consultant business analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

This company is propped up by public subsidies so it's not going to go down, and they will go at length to avoid bad publicity, so they can not do massive layoffs as often as they would like to.

Cons

The overhead management is too big and doesn't add any value. You are basically working for fat cats that want to keep variable cost to a minimum ( meaning the average employee). It doesn't matter if you are more skilled, more experienced, or have more education. You need to befriend people you wouldn't like to befriend in the first place in order to get ahead. Avoid if you have principles. Your performance evaluation depends more on the macro-economy and the business cycle than your own performance.

Pros

None which I can think of

Cons

Management can not be trusted, as they are all new and are busy trying to save their own jobs, Loosing work and good staff due to low staff morale The only way to survive is to say "Yes" to everything. Management talks positive in the staff meetings, but actions don't match what they say
