No work life balance

Pros

The compensation is good and they are growing in certain areas.

Cons

There is no work life balance for the business unit I am in (Omniture), and even though the business is growing it translates to very few career opportunities for current employees. They are much more likely to hire someone from the outside for positions that open up due to growth. So, in the end your are working incredible hours for little opportunity of advancement.

Pros

Free Starbucks coffee, candy, sodas, filtered water in all break rooms. 4 week sabbatical every 5 years for all employees.

Cons

My organization has no documented processes, procedures or templates. Information is very hard to find and is put out in various systems based on individual preferences. Attempts to normalize processes or procedures are not supported by individuals or management. Consistent poor feedback based on measurable actions is not acted upon.

Cons

* HR does little to promote from within * Alot of rookie VPs waiting for market to turn around, it shows in their work. * Alot of politics (tends to happen when there is not enough growth) * Ego driven culture (too many chiefs not enough indians) * Alot of jobs are being re-org'd to Utah where cost is cheaper * Flash
