Business outlook
Pros
Very stable. No layoffs even through the worst parts of the economic troubles. Generally laid back, "get it done" culture in most groups/departments. Technical focus.
Cons
Very limited upward mobility. Salaries on the low end for knowledge levels (fairly typical for engineering focused companies). Little respect for I.T. bodies of knowledge. Engineers from many disciplines are frequently placed in charged of departments, groups, & initiatives that they have little to no knowledge, background, or understanding of. "Build vs. Buy" mentality for most everything with some very antiquated systems & processes.
