Business outlook
Pros
Good benefits and decent compensation. The work isn't too difficult. There is a certain amount of freedom granted (ability to prioritize and perform work how I want to, as long as the goals are met).
Cons
It's just too big. There is no way to be recognized for advancement when there is virtually no face-to-face contact with management. The work itself can be brain-numbingly repetitive. On this particular project we've been averaging 50-60 hours per week for over a year, and as a thank you, given a bag of jelly beans and told that we can't let up, we'll need to keep working just as hard.
