Pros

- Compensation (To keep you from leaving) - Your peers are most likely wonderful

Cons

- Management is completely unattached from what happens day to day - Upper-management don't take into consideration how their decisions effect the people on the ground - No structured training. "Trial by fire" - Expect you to work overtime, but won't pay you for it - Incredibly hypocritical policies. "One UL" means we're on the same team, but the silo mentality is incredibly strong. - Egos abound

Pros

The work is interesting. Some decent travel is available if desired. If you work hard and set yourself apart from others you can earn a promotion.

Cons

It’s all about who you know. All responsibilities fall on Engineering. Engineering does much more than “engineer” and spend too much time on stuff that admin staff “should be able” to do. When something needs to change the usual solution is to have Engineers be responsible for it because many non-engineers can’t handle mediocre tasks.
