Pros

People are great (so friendly and helpful) Subsidized cafeteria with excellent options and value for money - one of the best I have seen Great Benefits and corporate discounts Flexible hours with an unparalleled work-life balance HR actually cares! You can really talk to them and they listen to you and try to take action

Cons

Not particular exciting or riveting work Management is very set in their ways. Can be a very old school place although the CEO has changed since I worked there so this may no longer be the case Location is not ideal - not very close to anything

Pros

When a project goes according to plan you can work with some great people and make decent money.

Cons

Bad behavior is tolerated when you have a weak team member. They are allowed to remain on payroll, even if they do not effectively contribute. The burden is often placed on the team members willing to pick up the slack. Promotions are not given to the most qualified. They are randomly assigned. There are some horrible scoring directors as a result.
