Pros

- Company has a strong network of people with technical skills & people that genuinely care about doing right and performing well. - Salary / Benefits are comparable to others in the industry - From my own experience, managers trust the employees to perform their jobs; I have been afforded the opportunity on several occasions to find ways to improve my assignments / tasks to make the customer happy & to make our system work more effectively. - From my personal experience, I get to travel quite frequently - Although contracting is not very secure, I have seen the company take care of its employees even after a contract on which they were working either expired or failed to be renewed. This develops a trust between the employee & the company.

Cons

- Since I started working just over 3 years ago, we have had 3 different CEOs, and are now discussing a company split (although this may actually be a Pro in the long-term); Unsure how to feel about upper management. - Like with any contracting job, job security is not as strong as on the government / private sector - Does not seem like there is much room for upward mobility; from personal experience, if you work harder and outperform, you will be rewarded no more & no less than those that do just enough to get by (this is how I have seen it under my new manager --the old one was a little more fair / aware enough to reward those that went above & beyond). This just makes the employees either lose motivation, or simply start looking elsewhere where their hard work will be more appreciated

Pros

Work/life balance; benefits are excellent; it is great place to work because of coo-workers; if you perform well you do not have to worry about loosing your job since something will be found for you to work on

Cons

There is not enough training; it looks like management is not that interested to improve anything for its employees; it's hard to move on to a higher position;
