Field offices demand absolute loyalty but offer none themselves

Field engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Take on as much or as little responsibility as you want. As a field engineer typically you will rarely see your boss or any administrative staff. Plenty of opportunities to move between companies who you see out in the field.

Cons

No one will know how hard or little you work. You will often be berated for the performance of crews you work for, and learn quickly how to dodge being thrown under the bus. Faced daily with ethical dilemma's.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good opportunities to work with very smart people and to make a difference. More people are starting to see the importance of interaction design. The benefits are decent enough as is the pay. Work life balance is good.

Cons

Management still shows its hardware, big company roots. Corporate culture is definitely conservative in many offices, so don't expect Google style perks and freedom. Typical big company administrative overhead and occasional upper management edicts which make little sense tactically.
