Pros

The benefits are excellent and the bonus is alright. The onboarding process is very easy and not stressful. The Learning and development team is amazing everyone is focus, excellent communicators, and makes coming to work for there classes worth it.

Cons

Major of management is clueless and lack common knowledge. If your not part of the in group you will be ousted and treated dispectfully. If you are a woman and skilled more than your boss you will be looked over for promotions. If you know your job more than your direct leader you will be harassed and degraded until you either speak your mind and get let go or you find a position elsewhere. HR is useless because they do not address anyone's concerns. They send you back nasty emails as if you did something wrong. Contractors are treated as if they are slaves and dispensible at any moment. Also, if you have banked your PTO you better use it as they do not pay out for it when you leave.

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.
