Pros

+ many very smart and genuinely nice people - a collegial environment + very little turnover. People seem to really like working here. + most everyone really cares about the work they do + great support from my manager (not sure if this true for everyone, but it is for me) + challenging work + flexible work arrangements + yearly bonuses if things are going well + working to improve office environments (should be a big improvement)

Cons

- biggest issue: pay ranges are low - most teams are understaffed - widely distributed teams, limited face-to-face interactions with some peers - decisions are very much top down, command and control is pretty much the norm - current office environments can be stifling, hard to interact with others

Pros

Decent pay. Not much else.

Cons

No lunch break, no breaks in general, can’t go to the bathroom for hours on end, the managers’ daughter gets special treatment because her mother is in charge. Constant criticism and unfair treatment.
