Pros

If you look at a relaxed working place with no much work pressure this is the place. Stand by the manger blindly and you can continue on, retire from this company.

Cons

Highly political. There some old management and team people who are there from long, you have to be yes boss to them, else progress will be impossible. All ideas has to come from them. Slow in technology.

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
