Pros
Good perks on-site: gym, massage, haircut, car wash service (mon & wed) day-care, snacks Okay benefits: 3 weeks vacation for new hires (4 weeks @ 10 years), matching 401k up to 6% (100% vested) Some great people to work with. Laid back environment. (Jeans ok all week long) Good facilities, great location next to Spectrum. Taste panel (help shape products that are or will be launched) Summer - Holiday hours (45 mins added to Mon - Thurs., half day Fridays)
Cons
Okay to below average pay. Very, very political! Odd review process: all managers review you. If anyone doesn't like you they can shoot down your positive review. Whole company gets review at same time, but they only have a limited number of slots available for above target and/or promotions. But they swear you aren't competing against each other. Lots of managers very few leaders. Lots of "yes men" Poor direction, focus, and career development. Company is all about marketing. So spin is big, process is not. Thus everything is it's own special one off. You will be constantly solving the same problems over and over again. Departments are very siloed. Poor transparency, information is a weapon, politics rule.
