Pros

Excellent ability to acquire undervalued companies. Excellent networks and contacts, as they deal with the senior most industry executives. Gain expertise across many sectors. Lots of research available to read and learn from. Compensation is quite good, especially if you get a stock grant.

Cons

IHS has trouble integrating the firms they acquire. Hard to move up the ladder if you at not a political animal. The managmeent cluture is kind of stiff...think AT&T. Can;t fault them for this, but the bottom line rules. Sometimes has too much influence on theri decision making, so you are always lookign ovver your shoulder.

Pros

A technology company so far behind that there is always interesting projects going on. In the past year executive leadership seems to have some focus and it does not feel like organization ADD. Benefits are very competitive.

Cons

A very consistent pattern of RIF's every few months. It is interesting that it is not always the lower performers, be very careful expressing an opinion for progress to middle management or you will very likely find yourself on the next RIF list. This is a management team that thinks they know it all. There are very few examples of leaders in this group, most are bosses, will make sure to tell you how to do the job. If you are coming in make sure to get a very good understanding of the expectation of role and responsibilities. If you are skilled you will be taken advantage of and asked to contribute at higher grade levels but performance and advancement is very subjective and there is no transparency in organizations like IT about what it takes to move to next levels. Unless of course you are playing that middle management stroking feathers game right..
