Most of the real work done in the trenches is done by some GREAT people. Excellent mid-level management.

Cons

No chance of advancement, lots of layoffs, reduced autonomy, horrific upper management, very low morale at the mid-level, terrible HR department, just an awful place to work right now...

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
