Pros

The folks who work there are nice, salt of the earth people. Many have been there a long time. And they're ready to do their best for the company. They give their best everyday. There is a free lunch in the cafeteria and free parking. Health Benefits are okay. The Black Box brand still has some meaning with customers.

Cons

Senior management are left overs from the "bad old days" with the former CEO who was investigated and removed by the SEC and made many of the mistakes that current employees have to struggle with. Investors seem to now be wising up and punishing management by pushing down the stock price. Unfortunately, hiring decisions of senior management seem to be made more on outside company connections/benefits than on the competence of the senior manager. This is a great company with a lot of potential, but long time senior management just seems intent on killing the golden goose. I could not suggest this is a good employer to anyone .

Pros

Enjoy working for the manager of my department. There is a good work/life balance.

Cons

Although I did manage to negotiate my salary when hired a tiny bit, they didn't tell me that I would be at my cap for my position.
