Pros

Good health insurance Parking (except it is not free).

Cons

I went from having a completely uninvolved manager to a micromanager. This place is a joke. It is data entry at best. I understand so many are desperate, and will take any job with the current economic conditions, but please, don't make the same mistake as me. The work is boring, repetitive, and most departments are the same - except for managers, that is. My current manager is suffocating and she wants to constantly communicate and be the best of friends. In fact, one manager considered us all "family." No! The entire department gives me little room to breathe.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
