Pros
• There is free parking for expensive-to-get-around-in Bethesda, which is nice. • There are numerous FREE snacks for employees to encourage them to stay late or on campus during lunch. That's extremely thoughtful and increases productivity, and there really is a nice selection of healthy and considerate options, that are rotated regularly. • Bathrooms are cleanly, and luxurious places to hang out and/or do your "business" in.
Cons
• There is a major war of competing corporate egos going on from the top down. I have joined the company recently, and already I feel like it's time to leave. It is a toxic environment created by narcissistic maniacs with overinflated egos. • Employees are routinely sandbagged, where tasks appear to go unmonitored and with no feedback, yet rapidly spiral into employee beratement and dismissal, because supervisors fail to manage effectively. • There is a chronic inability to accept blame when things go awry. People in my department blame other departments and certain VPs are like vicious attacking dobermans. • It is outwardly a congenial and happy place, yet just below the surface, it is a festering nightmare. Morale is the lowest imaginable and I can see the look of dread on my fellow employees' faces.
