Pros

diverse, easy to move between depts to learn new things, some very talented individuals, some very good managers. very competitive and fair compensation and benefits package

Cons

too much politics, and too many old senior management that dont understand new technology era. managers hesitant to let under-performers go, and overeager to promote sub-par staff, leading to a very clogged environment at MTS and up. promotion and pay raise program rewards employees for leaving, then coming back, instead of staying with the work place.

Pros

Very exciting work, so much so I work 20hours a day. No distractions from silly/fun events. Food is meh so I can focus on work. Coffee is also very mid, not good, not bad but mid.

Cons

Not enough work, I only work 20 hour a day, I still have 4 hours to sleep. And on the weekends, we still have 3 hour leisure time. We still accept People who gets hired expecting to work only a measly 80 hour week.
