      Pros

      *Awesome 401K Match *Good Co-workers *Lots of opportunities to get training you can take somewhere else

      Cons

      *No RSUs for lower level, day to day employees *You have to wait a Year+a quarter for ESOP *No Privacy - to the point they police you if you take a shared space for too long. *Very Poor career development from Directors and Managers *Constant cost cuttings - The four stars I am giving for Comp and Benefits is for the Benefits alone. *No systems training

      Pros

      Independent work environment, reasonable benefits (but getting worst). Ok wage, but ... see cons

      Cons

      Everything else... company only cares about money, you don’t know until you’re already in the door, ie) when it’s too late. Avoid lengthy sign on contracts Ie) 3years. you will hate yourself any longer then 1year, unless you like to work every night and weekends. Direct management is powerless, upper management only cares about timelines and budget/ saving money. Also every October beware of downsizing aka, layoffs and some how it never makes the news. Little to no growth potential
