Pros

Pay is very good, easily the best in among the local firms. Benefits are great. Health insurance is about $300/mo for a large family. When my child was born we had a private room, epidural, and standard hospital stay. The final bill due from the hospital was $0, the OB/GYN was $30.

Cons

The upper-level management (the people that guide the corporation) seem to be completely detached from reality and willing to sacrifice market longevity for short term stock gains. PM's are expected to win their own work. Which is difficult to do while you are trying to get a project done or if you are a CAD operator and have nothing to do with marketing.

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)
