If you could, would you still be working with Cerberus?

I would. Cerberus is just too awesome with their new army and resources. I would much prefer to be leading that army than the alliance's (or any other races' for that matter) forces. And I really liked working for them in ME2, although I don't agree with some of their methods, for once, what they did with Jack was wrong. It would be more complicated if it turned out that their new technologies were strongly tied with theirs unethic experiments. 
.
Of course, that brings this huge question of where Cerberus got those stuff and why they seens to be working with the reapers. To answer this, let's just say the Illusive man tells you you will have to trust him.
.
What would you do?
.
Edit: This is a more elaborated text about why I would work with Cerberus:
.
It's my understanding that the best way the galaxy can be organized is the one where the strongest specie rules surpreme. The explanation to why only one race should rule can be found in the prothean's history. Their galaxy was dominated only by them and given the fact that the actual galaxy is populated by more than a dozen intelligent species, it's safe to say the protheans subjugated or even exterminated other races. And why did they accomplish with this? A arguably bigger civilization than the currect one in our galaxy and certanly a more advanced nation. They were probably the strongest specie to fight the reapers (no other race cracked the keepers) and I have a theory they might still have a secret agenda.
.
That said, it leaves the question why humanity is the strongest race in the galaxy. Well, that is a very logical conclusion if you analyse Mass Effect's history. Humanity accomplished in decades that other races couldn't do in centuries. And even with their huge delay in entering the galactic community, they're already recognized as a super power.
.
So, where does Cerberus enter in all this? They clearly share those ideals and will pursue them with all their forces... and so would I.
.
Also, there is another very important point. Cerberus seems to be the most effective and resourceful organization in the Milk Way galaxy. And that is counting governments. They didn't close their eyes to the reaper threat and what they accomplished between ME1 and ME2 is impressive. Cerberus built a improved Normandy that was vastly superior to its Alliance (and turian!) counterpart and ressurected Shepard. In ME3, the Illusive Man is able to deploy a extremely powerful and technological superior army that was apparently made from nowhere. That's just an outstanding feat. Granted, if they are working for the reapers, I would have made a bad choice (but I don't believe so).
.
To finish, although I strongly disagree with some methods employed by Cerberus, especially concerning innocent people, I like how they are willing to take risks. TIM took a lot of them with our Shepards, but the best exemple is EDI. Putting an AI onboard gave the Normandy SR2 a huge edge over its enemies and made it one of the deadliest ships in the galaxy. It's easy to see how EDI was fundamental in the fight against the collectors and she wouldn't be there if anyone else was in charge. As the saying goes, fortune favors the bold.
.
In a nutshell, Cerbeus and I share the same ideologies and goals, they're are a extremely effective organization and I mostly agree with their methods.
.
GO CERBERUS! GO HUMANITY!

I'd have to pass on the extended Cerberus membership.

Orange and white just aren't my colors.

Hell to the no. I hated being railroaded into it in ME2, and can't wait to be out of their grasp in ME3.

Oh, my armor would be plain black. That is non negotiable. The hard pick would be between the Cerberus logo and the N7 tag.

Yes. Of course by working for you mean becoming Illusive (Wo)man the same way Liara became Shadow Broker, then yes.

Hell No. If I could have I would have cut ties after the collector ship when I was sent into the trap. I just hope I get to see the Illusive Man face to face in this game to thank him properly for that.

Specter and Alliance Black Ops for me. I imagine my Shepard to be somewhat like the disavowed Task Force 141 in MW3. I have a job to do, politicians and shady bastards be damned. Ceberus has had its knife inadvertantly or explicitly pointed at my back one too many times.

No

1. I didn't like defending Cerberus in ME2 (Horzion anyone)
2. Been betrayed by them TWICE
3. We don't share the same concept of "making humanity strong"
4. Hidden agenda there is more to it than "human dominance"
5. They perfrom horrific experiments and killed Alliance soilder's/Officer's
6. Put the galaxy in danger several times (Project Overlord, Rachni clones)
7. I prefer Alliance N7 special forces/Spectre
8. I plan to bring down Cerberus in ME3
9. Shepard is just a tool for TIM to achieve his own goal's

They did bring Shepard back from the dead, and created Normandy SR2/EDI I'll give them that

Yes, if only for the stylish logo and exquisite color scheme.

While I may not agree with how they achieve everything, at least they get the job done, and then some.

Too bad none of this matters in ME3, as Cerberus seems to be reduced to comic book villain status no what your decisions or intentions where. So far for choices that matter...

Yes, but not openly. :devil:

I'd be like Hackett, officially under the Alliance/Council but privately helping Cerberus out whenever I can.

The legal rights of the Spectres are just too hard to pass up. There's no better job for an elite black-ops operative like Shepard.

My ultimate loyalty is to progress, scientific, cultural, and social, for the Galaxy in general and for Humanity in particular. I'll support whichever organization that best achieves that.

Depends on the Shepard.

One of my Shepards would have never worked with them regardless, which kinda annoyed me since I have to anyway. Another one, though, basically said "**** the Alliance" after being completely mistreated, and would probably trust more in TIM at this point.

Depends on which playthrough we're talking about. I dont consider any of them to be canon, so I can only answer, yes, no, or maybe.

They aren't my colors (green and grey) either, but they are the colors of my school.

One thing we both agree on.

No.

I would, however, keep them around on a shorter leash, provided that they're not actually working with the Reapers. If they are, they shall be purged and replaced. Humanity needs something like Cerberus in the galaxy; they just need to be kept small with limited influence.

Nope - they chose the name of a three headed dog that guards the gates to hell.

I am so against that.

You should support Cerberus, then. They wish to unify the galaxy under humanity.

That comment was tongue-in-cheek. You should consider that unified does not mean everyone is on equal footing.

Two of my Shepards would and the other four wouldn't.
