Pros

The company has great perks: food in the breakrooms, personal trainer, etc. There are fun people to work with and the products are interesting to learn the science behind.

Cons

Noncompetitive pay, unreachable demands, and no communication. The company is very heavily sales-based and often the workers on the low-end of the totem pole get to stay for long hours and do an incredible amount of work just to meet those quarter end demands. There's no planning to make these easier or fairer to the employees.

Pros

Pay and benefits were reasonably good. I liked many of my peers.

Cons

*Senior management is disengaged, has no idea how the operational side of the company functions, makes a lot of short-sighted decisions while ignoring input from the managers that report to them. * Wildly inconsistent disciplinary practices with some employees being written-up or even terminated for the same things that other employees only get unofficial verbal warnings for (this could put the company in an awkward legal spot, so I suggest they get this one ironed out sooner rather than later) *When things go wrong blame is almost always allocated to the frontline employees rather than poor process design or inadequate resources/staffing *Building off the last point, managers (particularly the higher up you go) rarely take accountability for anything and allow their subordinates to shoulder the blame when things go wrong *Promotions get dangled over your head for years, but somehow it's never quite the right time or not quite within budget to actually make it happen
