Pros

Extremely Stable organization with little to no risk in a downturn economy. There are many opportunties to explore various job opportunities and work both domestically and internationally. Regardless of the US economy, this is an extremely stable firm through financial efficiency and broad diversity of service offerings.

Cons

Very low cost focused, often at the expense of innoviation. Very stove piped with respect to the aproach to business which cause internal competition that is unecessary.
