Pros

Free Bagels and Coffee. An onsite gym and showers. Lactation Room 4000 a year in tuition reimbursement. Free downloading and open use of internet. You know you won't get in trouble for Social Networking because the CFO and half the Director levels post Facebook updates during working hours all the time. Cool Products.

Cons

Impressive degrees or frequent use of buzzwords far out weigh any common sense or innovative thinking at this company. Management is a disgrace. There is common practice to pretend they knew nothing of any negative situation and use their employees as scapegoats with their superiors. HR is so incompetent that they keep resumes on the common drive and have released files of high level employees salary information on the Internal Sharepoint site, which customer service got hold of and sent all over the company. More than once I have witnessed my colleagues get promoted and then months later, HR comes to them and informs them that they can no longer have that title because they don't make enough money to be in that management bracket. Which leads to another thing-- no promotions unless you are in the good ole boys club. Management lets key positions work alone and then runs in a panic when they leave and things are no longer functional. I had 5 managers in the past two years and the latest one actually told me his goal is to put in his 3 years, achievements didn't matter as long as he talked a good game an then jump to a higher salary outside Integra. That didn't leave me with much motivation. Expense system has employees cutting personal checks to Integra.

Pros

To provide a balanced perspective, one positive aspect was the company's willingness to offer flexible work arrangements.

Cons

I would encourage prospective employees to carefully evaluate the company culture before joining. In my experience, the work environment lacked the level of professionalism and collaborative leadership I expected. Leadership decisions at the senior level often appeared to be driven by personal viewpoints rather than objective discussion and open engagement. Employees who did not align with the preferred direction could experience resistance rather than constructive dialogue. The culture felt more aligned with a "my way or the highway" management style than a collaborative and inclusive approach. I also experienced situations where information communicated about my performance appeared inconsistent with my actual work contributions and outcomes. Rather than constructive feedback supported by objective metrics and open discussion, I felt there were instances where narratives surrounding performance were inaccurate or misrepresented. This created concerns regarding transparency, accountability, and the overall feedback process. The company has also faced regulatory challenges in the past, which may be worth researching independently as part of your due diligence process. My experience ultimately did not align with my expectations for leadership, transparency, and organizational culture.
