Pros

Casual jeans were a pretty nice addition, but I'd like to see a true casual dress code instead of "please wear jeans with your dress shoes".

Cons

Work/life balance is decent, depending what department you're in. Some areas work more OT in a week than a normal department does in a month.

Pros

Opportunities to learn in a fast paced ever changing environment

Cons

High turnover, leading to overwhelming workload. Many (not all) Inexperienced, frustrated supervisors. Employee success or failure is a reflection of supervisor, manager and CEO.

Pros

Casual dress, free bagels on Tuesday(Whoopie do) free coffee and nice walking path.

Cons

Where to start. The micro managing is ridiculous. They nit pick and find excuses to put you in various statuses when you make mistakes so you don't get a raise. How dare you be human. Oh and don't talk anyone, be a coding zombie. Sit and code for 8 hours and leave. I was hired to develop, nope after the 90 days of so called training I was put in an area were I had no experience. Boy what a mistake, promised training class, nope. Don't ask questions your bothering people. Make a mistake while trying to learn, that'll go against you. The data migration building is a warehouse, nice working environment. The whole thing was a nightmare. The reviews are based on your failures. You review yourself first then your supervisor counters your review so I guess its best to bash yourself. Also if your not part of the friend circle of your supervisor good luck. Your treated like an outcast and subject to micro managing like you wouldn't believe. Lastly on a company level. On a monthly basis sometimes more they interrupt production with political meetings with the whole staff. Put it in an email and I'll read it. Nope, there goes a half day listening to upper management blabber on and on while you dose off. Then waste tons of money on free food. Save it for bonuses and quit bribing people to show up to these upper management pat on the back sessions. They're all about sales, employees are just sheep there. BEWARE!!!
