Great Perks, Horrible Management

Business Outlook

Pros

Ceo is great, free food in the newark office, great products. Happy hour every Friday, and they really do try to keep everyone culures (themed lunches, events etc)

Cons

A ton of politics, and sense of entitlement from the people who come from the DE(German) Office. Promotions are purely political; dont work in Finance/Business Intelligence/Tech Departments.
