Pros
Health Benefits are fully paid, the location isn't terrible. They do a lot to manufacture a collegial environment, primarily through catered events and seasonal outings
Cons
Free lunches came to appear more like an attempt to placate & distract those who would speak up for market rate salaries, well-qualified promotions, or competent managers. Everything others have said about favoritism is true--it doesn't help that the company is family owned and led, and that there are several familial relationships companywide (marital, filial, siblings). There were several managers whose incompetence as researchers/project managers/leaders were open secrets whispered over coffees in the kitchen, These types passed blame down to others, or when called out for their mismanagement fired those who raised the issue. The employees who put in the time/effort, who are sharp and promotable, who have integrity, are the sorts that are pushed out. As an aside, diversity at Fors Marsh is no more than an optics game. As a person of color, I felt targeted for my identity and in speaking with others, came to understand that the lack of respect was a common and longstanding practice.
