Pros

The people are great, the pay is okay, if you can get a job assignment on a good project with a good boss it can be a really good place to work.

Cons

Not many good job assignments or good bosses, the company has focused on cost savings to the point were innovation is on the decline, sales growth has slowed and the company is trying to find it's way...with more cost savings.
