Pros

Good benefits, including 401 contributions

Cons

Poisonous culture and work environment caused by a micromanager CTO. The CTO want to be involved with every project, which is fine, but he makes everything so much harder than it needs to be by his micromanagement. Most projects are delayed because of him but everyone is too afraid to tell him the truth. He is also not very professional at times and can become verbally abusive during meetings. I would not recommend working for this company…

Pros

Good benefits (401K match, employee stock options, etc.), depending on the department you work in you could have some decent flexibility regarding work from home,

Cons

Incredibly disorganized from the very top of the organization which only gets worse as SVPs and EVPs don't retire and just clog the hierarchy. Everyone is involved in the decision making process which means that no decisions end up getting made, or they are made too late and then the executives sacrifice a lower level manager for not acting quick enough. Certain corporate departments that aren't directly involved in client facing environments get treated incredibly poorly by the client facing departments. Raises are nonexistent (not even 3%).
