Micromanagement and metrics rule

Pros

Fairly liberal in accomodating needs, good pay, flexible schedule, opportunities for growth, stable work, multiple locations so you can live almost anywhere in the greater Boston area and work here.

Cons

Matrix organization results in multiple bosses all wanting highlights, financial status, plans, metrics, and presentations. In fact the reporting and financial control process takes up more time than the work. Limited training due to overhead budget contraints, no formal new hire mentoring and training. Extremely limited professional development opportunities due to low overhead budgets. Every high performer is overloaded with work, and there skaters do nothing but are rewarded due to politics.

Pros

Strong engineering heritage, good engineering practices and discipline

Cons

US seem to have lost faith in UK subsidiary. Senior management spend too much time focussing on pleasing the US, not concentrating on the UK customers. Very poor communication of strategy. Tendency for senior managers to shift blame downwards for their lack of competence.

Pros

Job security, 9/80 schedule let you take every other friday off. Good place to work if 9 to 5 work schedule is your ambition in life.

Cons

Outdated working environment (aged furniture from 80s, conference room with no projector abound, tacky interior, unbearable cafeteria food, etc.), lack of innovation, weak engineering/mangement leadership, mid level experienced engineers are scarce.
