Good company to work for

Business analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Very flexible, laid back culture with good work/life banlance. Beautiful campus. Cheap Bayer drugs. 3 weeks of vacation time upon start. Conveniently located in Robinson. Annual bonus.

Cons

Cost restraints are limiting raises/promotions and staffing qualified employees. Bureaucracy is prevalent. Salary/comp is about average. The age of most employees are over 40. Bonus determination structure just got redone, and judging from the consensus of the leadership it is not in the employees' favor.
