Pros

Potential for a great company exists - some excellent work opportunities and high profile projects available. Excellent parental leave policy and relatively competitive base salary.

Cons

Major growing pains as the various op-cos are amalgamated. Lots of talk about using the best practices of all the companies, but in the end, it seems like best practice = cheapest. Institution of very US-style of doing business, which doesn't always work everywhere.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
