Very happy at this company

Pros

Solid salary. Great culture, lots of company paid social events for employees. Lots of growth opportunities and the ability to move up in the company is there. Work-life balance is a priority. Great people to work with everyday. Employees are encouraged to make decisions and offer suggestions on how to improve the way the company operates. Company has seen tremendous growth in past 10 years and it appears like that trend will continue.

Cons

My training was very minimal, almost non-existant. Workload can get overwhelming at times.

Pros

The salary is not only at the top of the range in all areas that they hire in but the raise and bonus structure is very transparent and fair. Amazing culture, lots of benefits (tops in the area) and there is a managerial perspective on fairness and career development that is rarely found at any organization.

Cons

This is a company with lots of high acheivers, relatively new people, and is going through an extreme growth phase. People that want consistency and the same thing day in and day out would be disappointed here.

Pros

The co-workers were very friendly probably one of the best, I have seen. Great family-life balance and good benefits.

Cons

I could write a novel of the cons affiliated with this company. I was wrongfully terminated at the end of May. I went to HR twice due to issues with my manager. They made up their minds to get me out of there ASAP. I was set-up to fail. My manager had a long record of poor employee engagement. Everyone in the department wants to transfer to another department. She was extremely condescending, disrespectful and hostile towards her employees. She went as far as forbidden me to ask other team members questions and only her. Whenever I asked for help, she wouldn't help me and instead berated straight into the ground! I knew I wouldn't last long and would be fired. The only positive is now, I no longer have to fear going into work and dealing with that cynical lady. The company hires a lot of Temps. They treat the temps pretty badly. It's like they are a separate class of workers. The temps are not included in anything with the company. STAY CLEAR OF THE SHARED SERVICES DEPARTMENT! I wouldn't wish what I had to suffer through on my worst enemy.
