Pros

Many interesting companies taken over with some great people to work with, interesting projects and clients of previous companies, large projects both deep and broad, good working environment.

Cons

Complex systems that were region-blind, moderate to low salary, too many silos between take-over companies developed with staged-in transitions that made cooperation and business development complex and messy.

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)
