Pros

Work-Life Balance. Even though the company is moving towards a leaner operation, people are still used to the legacy work culture. Many leave before 4PM, but arrive around 10. A lot of teams have the mindset of do you job, do it efficiently, go home.

Cons

Company politics are stifling. This company strives of the idea of "it's who you know, not what you know". Many departments play favorites and often times mirrors a college greek organization. Benefits are mediocre for company size.

Pros

Great place to work. At times work can seem chaotic with too many things going on at once but overall, the employees make the work environment and most everyone I worked with were incredible individuals to work with.

Cons

Lot of changes happening all the time which I guess is to be expected but can sometimes be unorganized and chaotic at times. It really depends on the leadership.
