Pros

There are lots of good people who work hard. The benefits are good. The East Hanover campus has several ammenities including fitness centers, eye care, and doctor offices.

Cons

Leadership overworks employees and continues to push when they see that the employees are struggling. "Clique" culture does not welcome new employees with different point of view. Some managers support friends more than their staff. Employee workload is not considered when reviewing metrics. Leadership disrespect toward employees is tolerated and encouraged by lack of correction. No work life balance.
