Pros

Few good projects derived from Legacy companies like Scott Wilson, DGP. Stability in difficult market. Values Clients

Cons

Huge Politics internally to keep 'pet' people as frontrunner. Low increments. Managed by Accountants not Engineers. Even PM course is more related to accountancy. Treat Staff like milking cow. No efforts to develop social fabric within company
