Pros

Great people and benefits combined with a professional atmosphere makes this a seemingly good place to work. Large international company has the potential to offer great growth opportunities.

Cons

Confusion at almost every level of the organization, Clueless management gets brought in to restructure and only succeeds in creating more chaos with their Fortune 500 attitude. The few people who care will be pushed out and replaced by like minded drones that only look for the bottom line.

Pros

Good group of people in local office.

Cons

Stuck in the past. Unwilling to consider updating methods or procedures. "We've done it this way for 30 years and it has worked." Sales relies upon project engineers to do most of their work for them. When volume of work is slow that becomes the engineers responsibility to go find new clients. Can't reliably pay the most basic of utility bills on time. I've seen the power cut off 2x and the gas this past winter.
