      Pros

      I work with amazing and talented people, and (contrary to what many might believe) most all Managers, Directors, and Executives are wanting improvement and feedback from their staff. The company is off-balance, but it is improving and I see it every day.

      Cons

      We are growing fast, moving into a new world without the historical planning and foresight we needed five years ago to manage this. There are some at the top who have strong enemies because their orders and decrees were a firing squad for many on the ground floors. Lack of attention to the collateral damage has repercussions, and everyone suffers those situations.

      Pros

      Awesome place and people - complex and large finance operation and balance sheet yet still small enough to make an impact and build up solutions from the ground floor - creative place!

      Cons

      Sometimes can be stretched for more resources

      Pros

      Great staff and middle management. Good benefits and facilities.

      Cons

      Upper Management - same tune as all the other reviews. This place is full of great people who don't know they are great. It's also full of bad leaders who think they are great. Unfortunately, the best performers are often rewarded with carrying the burden of underperformers and non-contributing leaders. In certain teams there is very limited in upward mobility. They are slow to weed out low performers and ineffective managers. All in, strong performers and high achievers might find this place frustrating. This is a place for those who like to coast through.
