      Pros

      Opportunities for professional growth and education, salary plus bonus plus time off is really good, company is supportive of telecommuting (however, not all managers support telecommuting). Buildings are well maintained and clean, and most locations offer a gym or discounted local gym membership. Company allows flex-time. Employees are updated regularly on projects and legislative changes via intranet and email.

      Cons

      Work-Life balance is not always possible, resources are not always available to support work load, commuting to San Francisco office when necessary can be challenging, promotions are not always justified for those who receive them (some managers are able to promote "favorites" instead of basing decision on merit).

      Pros

      A pay check. Benefits from the first day. Employment during a recession. First job out of high school. Great on campus cafe. Fairly safe location.

      Cons

      Unhappy co workers. Overworked supervisors. Low quality training. Out of date computer system - AS 400. Required to use several sessions of Excel and Access just to get the work load done, because these programs are used as "work arounds" because the Main frame system is so limited.
