Pros

Level of technical skills needed for projects are unique and challenging.

Cons

Projects may not be well thought out. Deadlines to meet budgets so that regional P&L numbers look good is a big con. Little feedback from senior management, high turnover, information about layoffs and downsizing at the end of 2009 and early 2010 was not handled in a professional manner.
