Pros

Good benefits such as stock options, 401k, health ins, dental, occasional gifts (company swag), and monetary incentives to purse fitness. The mission is good and I believe in the company and what they provide.

Cons

If you work at the bottom, entry level positions, anything below executive level, be prepared to be cramped up with loads of work that you can't even keep up but cannot complain. They don't help people advance in the career path that the person chooses. They load with so much work you can't even blink. Supervisors don't care about you, just gotta meet the quota at all costs. There's definitely favoritisms too. Every 6 months they change things and you gotta learn new things, new systems, but you don't get financially rewarded for that. The pay raise is so small, between 2 and 3 % a year. Supervisors seem to play favorites. If you are shy and quiet, forget about getting promoted or growing. It only seems like the people who are well spoken and driven to climb up the latter and going the super extra mile will get some reward. But even those, I've seen being stuck at "... specialist level 1" like forever. Not flexible with schedule, work load, vacation time etc. Eventually we all get trained to do each others jobs but still cannot take long vacations even if you have the vacation days in the system. You can accumulate 4 weeks of vacation but cannot take it all at once. :( It doesn't make any sense.
