Pros

A performance leader with HQ in Saint Louis. Pays slightly better than most companies in Saint Louis. Respected by financial analyst for continued growth. Tough and relentless competitor. Given the economy, they offer a solid place to work for anyone that wants a couple of years compensation in exchange for a massive amount of work.

Cons

Lip service is paid frequently to the value of employees, but anyone that is not a VP or viewed as potential future VP is cannon fodder. All employees struggle to have any balance with family. You're valued for what you're doing now and have to earn your job every day, and can be arbitrarily fired to meet financial targets or forced ranking quota. I was hired by an exceptional VP, but discovered after she transferred that she was on of the rare really good department leaders. People pay lip service to core values but its common to see them keeping information to themselves to get into the elite 20% stretch performers that are rewarded heavily. If you're not targeted as a stretch performer or capable for another promotion they will run you into the ground until you quit or they claim you're below thresholds and fire you.
