Pros

Acosta typically provides great schedule flexibility, high level of repsonbility relative to tenure, little micro managing of employees and has a great company culture that emodies these values.

Cons

Acosta too often manages by perception and not performance. The informal nature of management is great until you rely on them to make serious decisions about your career.

Pros

Work with little to no supervision, work/life balance is great.

Cons

Bonuses/raises are a joke. There is little to no room for any advancement although they promise it.

Pros

The culture of the company and people are wonderful. It is a fun place to work. Very flexible in work policies depending on job.

Cons

The management talks about people being their greatest asset. Yet, they wont share the success of the company with the employee. 18000+ employees, yet only 300+ (and an equity company) with an ownership stake. There is no defined path to get to the ownership level and when you ask they won't give you an answer. It appears as a good ole boy network to become an owner. No clear career pathing or succession planning. Retirement program is woefully inadequate.
