Pros

It's a job that you can leverage for another job at another company. PTO/Summer Days. Most people that work there are decent

Cons

Depends which department you are in. Some department are actually great. The department I was in, well: People NOT my manager would try to managed me Very High School Liars None of the people in my department were good people Manager doesn't know what they were doing Micromanaged High turn-over rate

Pros

Great Benefits and Time Off (PTO days)

Cons

If you are working or plan to work for Technology Department, you WILL become overworked and unappreciated! remember this review if you take the job. The place is so toxic it is unbelievable. I mean really!!! There is no room for growth in the Technology Department and it runs very dysfunctional. Where Managers, VPs, directors all have to "justify" their jobs by "doing" something all the time, and that means overlapping into the jobs/responsibilities of their staff. Micromanaging hell at this place. All about the clicks too! "Leaders" love throw around their titles like it's a high school with the popular jocks and cheerleaders. Let's not forget the tons of useless meetings for everything! A meeting for the meeting, meeting after the meeting, meeting follow up to the meeting! ughhhhh it's just crazy! SVP's who micromanage down to the tech level and does NOT trust their own team EVER. HR and Executive team should really place a secret shopper or something on this 9th floor to investigate. To some it's all about the metrics and what to show on paper of "how much" we are doing. Consider this place to be sort of a digital sweat shop and as long as you produce output, you can keep your job. It's really that bad. I am so relieved that I am no longer there.

Pros

Nice offices, sleepy company with a really low bar in terms of striving for excellence so easy to phone it in.

Cons

This is a dying company with a seemingly "nice" but extremely passive aggressive culture.
