Pros

Vacation and benefits and lots of coffee and bagels

Cons

Worse company ever. This is the reason the movie office space was created. Nothing happens. Its 99 % process. Everyone is on vacation. The spirit of apathy is dominate in the work space. Nobody thinks. They just want to keep there easy job where all they have to do is THE PROCESS. You will lose your soul working here. I went to the restroom 6x just for something to do
