Great Culture, Amazing Company, Great place to work

Vice president

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong, culture. extremely smart people, team mentality, start-up feel yet still part of a top Fortune 15 company, openness to new ideas and thinking to continue growth, inspirational leaders, internal promotions + external hires means the growth plan isn't one-sided.. Even with continued growth, the company has made it critical to retain the small company feel. Amazing company. Not to mention, free lunch, snacks, coffee/drinks, ice cream Thursdays in the summer, etc.

Cons

None really. Commute in Newark can be long in traffic. But worth it.
