Pros

Great co-workers (working group, office environment); flexible hours; decent benefits; lack of geographic boundaries meant plenty of networking and project opportunities for the motivated staffer; interesting work; company maintained momentum through the economic downturn.

Cons

Aggressive billable goals detracted from project quality and led to some dramatic burnouts. Frequent neglect of smaller, innovative offerings in favor of unwieldy big $ projects. Some clear geographic differences in advancement opportunities, and overall lack of advancement opportunities for primarily technical staff (salaries not matching skill and responsibility level). Slow trimming of deadwood.

Pros

The people and the work we do.

Cons

None really. Could use better pay consistencies and recognition of those who do well and are rewarded as such.
