Pros

Great people loyal to brand, Good Benefits, encouraged to work from home. Diverse workforce with many from overseas.

Cons

Micromanagement with 8 am Monday meetings and 4 pm Friday meetings as if execs do not trust their employees. Typical 50-60 hour work week minimum. Difficult work life balance as managers call you when you are out sick and you are expected to check email while on vacation. Little or no raises.

Pros

Competent management, excellent benefits, competitive pay, and a work life balance that is impossible to compete with

Cons

The totem pole of management is so monumentally tall that the mid and upper management make decisions affecting those on the bottom with no real understanding of what the consequences of their decision are.
