Pros

The health insurance is quite good, or at least has been for me. Some of the celebrations can be fun. The location is better than others in my opinion. Many of the people I work with is why I still work here.

Cons

A lower-than-average salary runs rampant throughout the company from my experience and what I've been told. The management seems to be very confused with priorities which makes my job harder. Parking is pretty bad in this area and it's the same at Adaptive.
