Pros

The group of peers I worked with was phenominal - friendly, hardworking, with strong work ethics.

Cons

The culture was very caustic. A lot of passive-aggressive behavior. No trust in leadership. It appeared leadership was not concerned with the moral of their employees. They asked a lot of their employees without giving much back. It was a "sweat shop" type environment. The medical insurance was VERY poor for such a large company.

Pros

Co-workers are wonderful to work with, some very bright people work here lower management are generally very good to work for

Cons

Way too many directors and above, not enough real workers to get all of the work done. (I've never worked at this small of a company with so many vice presidents). The people that are left and are actually doing the work are putting in way too many hours. A lot of the best people have left and many, many more are looking. If you're thinking of joining this company, only do it as a last resort, unless you enjoy working evenings and weekends...
