Long Hours, Limited Recognition

Pros

The salaries seem to be in line with other companies' offerings in the industry. There are a large number of highly qualified, intelligent employees employeed at this company.

Cons

The culture of "firedrills" being acceptable creates excessive workloads in most departments. The little employee recognition that occurrs seems to be tied directly to the number of hours spent in the office regardless of performance. Employee recognition is also unevenly distributed across departments.

Pros

Good learning and growth opportuntities, solid opportunities for advancement if you are an outstanding performer. BSC has great products, and it is exciting to work on projects that can siginficantly contribute to company and industry growth.

Cons

Some employees are great performers but must wait for promotions based solely on years of experience vs. performance level. In addition, there is not much movement opportunity once the middle management level is reached, people tend to stay with the company for a long while.

Pros

Everyone are friendly and supportive. I would say that the job is very competitive and gave me an opportunity to learn and think beyond my capabilities.

Cons

Differences between departments. I have a noticed a great communication gap between different departments. Human resources is not at all helpful and I am seriously surprised by the way they treat newly graduated students from average schools.
