Pros

Fairness and challenge along with great coworkers.

Cons

Flat structure results in limited promotion opportunities for those who want to "climb the corporate ladder." Must be satisfied with the work, not looking forward to the next job.

Pros

The work environment is very friendly. People are willing to help. As a student they are willing to treat you like a regular employee if you take the initiative to ask for work. On the development side the work can be challenging. You are usually given a bug report and your job is to find the cause of the bug and attempt to fix it. Sometimes the bugs are very easy and I would run out of work. I'd have to ask my supervisor and he would tell me there is nothing left to do. Management does a good job of keeping people on task.

Cons

On the testing side the work can be quite repetitive. Every other week or so you are required to run a bunch of tests for other people. This involves loading the test and monitoring them while they ran. If you run into an error you are required to fix it. The work is very repetitive and sometimes you may be asked to run the tests manually. As a student there really were no benefits. The environment is business casual which can be a downside if you dislike wearing collared shirts or fancy shoes. I wasted money buying fancy shoes I hate to wear.

Pros

Good employee support with an understanding for personal needs and a good remuneration structure. The group as a whole was focussed on some key long term initiatives but their was often a disconnect between this and the Key Result Areas we were measured on.

Cons

Lack of non-financial recognition for consistent and excellent results. A strong silo culture within certain areas and others that lacked a commercial veiwpoint. Also the inability for management to explain the disconnect listed above. A talent pool with pro-active conversations to dicuss and position opportunities through the group would be beneficial to retaining and exposing employees to the greater group.
