Pros

Financially sound company. Rewards adequately based on performance. Promotional opportunities are available. Opportunities to work with the management right away.

Cons

Company was a little quick to halt salary increases and reduce bonuses as many other companies were making pay cuts, although the stock price increased about $125 a share during 2009. I'm not sure how necessary the pay cuts were since the company was in sound financial condition. May have been a "preemptive strike" if you will.

Pros

Friendly work environment Very collaborative Successful employees treated well - opportunity for increasing responsibility Co-workers are respectful of others opinions Differing opinions are encouraged

Cons

Low turnover in upper ranks - since successful employees are treated well, little people at the top leave. It creates logjams for successful employess in lower levels.

Pros

Pay. Benefits. Casual work environment -- nobody cares what you wear. Can be a pretty sweet gig when you're not worked to the bone. I don't feel like a work for an evil corporation that's trying to take advantage of helpless customers i.e. Credit Card companies etc.

Cons

Poor work life balance, hope you don't like your Saturdays and when random Production issues occur. Cliquish, if you're not in with the right crowd you will no receive the same treatment when it comes to bonuses, promotions etc. If you're good at playing the game, you'll be fine. People hold on to knowledge, don't want to share.
