Pros

- Great people in my office - Loved the vice president and my direct supervisor that I reported to - Tuition reimbursement, profit sharing, and decent benefits - Pay was ok

Cons

- When I was leaving the company and was told I could not bring my position with me when I moved because they were changing the position, the manager used my resume word for word on the job description in a job board so that had me confused and a bit angry since the position wasn't going to be what I used to do (I am not even sure where they got my new resume since I had worked there 14 years and was looking in another city and did not give them a copy that I remember)

good place to work but lots of complainers

Pros

My experience so far (4 years) has been pretty good - the company is always evolving and doing new things. I have learned a lot since starting here and have had good growth in my salary. Not going to lie - I do work a lot but I like the work I am doing.

Cons

The biggest issue I have is they don't get rid of "dead-weight" - there are a number of people who complain about pay and little things like the coffee but they don't do anything, they sit around and complain put in exactly 8 hours and walk out the door. They do nothing but expect big things in return - I just don't get that mindset.
