      Engineering was horrible and affected everything else negatively

      Pros

      Decent internal processes. Shop was more than capable of getting the job done. Culture of reward and taking care of each other was some of the best. My boss showed true appreciation for the PM's that worked for him.

      Cons

      Upper level management was stubborn and believed hiring grads straight from college was a good cost save solution. It was literally the death of the company. Made managing projects extremely difficult and almost every project suffered in cost, timing and quality because of it. Telling the customer you're sorry got to be too much and that was the end of me.
