Pros

Quick turn around for getting hired on...if you're willing to work as a contractor with no paid time off and unpaid holidays.

Cons

They tell you it'll be a temp to hire contract position but once you start you find it's 9-12 months before you'll potentially be hired and that's only if you suck up to the right people. Favoritism is a huge issue here. A lot of gossip.

Meh.

Pros

Decent benefits (although this is changing - more cost put on employee within last year) Great December holiday party. Parking is paid for. Nice American Royal event.

Cons

Reactive and mercurial senior management. Low pay compared to similar sized organizations. Bonus program is very subjective, they should do away with it and just pay decent salaries. Favoritism runs rampant - although it's not hidden - you definitely know who is in good graces with management. When you leave, for whatever reason, the character assassination begins in earnest - very gossipy company.

Nice events, free parking, decent work environment.

Cons

Bonus program doesn't seem to be based on merit. Insurance coverage below average.
