Business Outlook

Pros

- Good Salaries - Good Stock Options for upper management - Good Healthcare packages - Some excellent skilled people throughout the organizations

Cons

- Nepotism all over the place - Executives and VPs judge people once and then decide if they will support you or go after you to leave - Be prepared to be obsequious if you want to get promoted or don't want to get laid off - Constant lay offs and new hires (very unstable)
