Pros

Decent pay, bonus, stock, 401k

Cons

Upper management favors inner circle. Talented knowledgeable people do the work management takes credit. Experienced hard workers are not appreciated. You feel you have a target on you if you don't kiss up to management.

Pros

Bonuses are good. Good company discounts etc.

Cons

Horrible working environment resembles a sweat shop. You will be shoulder to shoulder with 5 people constantly yapping and talking on their phones. Inflexible management does not care about their employees.
