Pros

Resourceful place, if you know how to find and get what you need. Opportunity to experience large projects and complex office politics.

Cons

Specific to the SunFab group, but can also apply to many other groups: . No fair award system. No award for real hard work. No fair performance review system. Too many layers of management. Engineers have responsibility without authority. Management are not liable for their mistakes (no feedback system). Very in-efficient purchasing department. . . .
