Pros

Co-workers are nice, the building is beautiful, the pay is good.

Cons

Welcome to a company that just announced they will be firing 15 people while bringing in a bunch of new executives who are mostly overpaid. Very few officers in the company have any idea what it is their department does, or even the names of the people who work for them. Barely anyone has met the new CEO. Most executives dont want to get to know you. No wonder people are leaving like it's the 2013 conversion all over again. Don't bother applying of you don't have a degree. You aren't eligible for any position regardless how talented or intelligent you are. The corporate culture, if you can even call it that, looks down on anyone without a degree. Not that they want you going back to school. Then they'd have to pay you more money. But don't expect that a degree will help you. The company still wants to pay you like an entry level employee. The only bloated salaries allowed are the executives. And they'll leave their pay stubs in the copy room so you know exactly how much they make. The people making decisions are convinced they're the only ones who know anything. Almost every problem from the recent conversion is directly related to someone with a six-figure salary making a unilateral decision with no understanding of the consequences. After how badly the conversion went, someone surely lost their job, right? Not a single decision maker.

Pros

The paid time off is good

Cons

Works employees to death - tons of mandatory overtime required Management does not support employees Yearly bonuses were taken away for monthly bonuses just so the company doesn’t have to pay out bonuses. You cannot make a single mistake because they don’t believe in the fact that humans make mistakes. You will get written up and put on a PIP. No chance to move up in the company, they already have the people that they want and they will pick and choose who to put in what positions. STAY AWAY!
