Pros

The offices are very nice as most have been renovated for the open office feel. The people are great, lots of friendly staff who are willing to help.

Cons

The company is so big you have no involvement in the bigger, "cooler" projects. Very limited to only working on what your location and your group is doing. Don't get to work with other business lines. Very concerned with $$$$, less concerned with quality of project. Willing to take advantage of clients for the money. Lastly, after the merger, the benefits were slashed tremendously. Way higher deductibles, way less coverage. Definitely a rip off.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
