Pros

Great benefits, many opportunities to learn and improve skills, if you are in the right department with a good management there is opportunity for advancement. Great product that delivers real value to customers.

Cons

Very political and competitive work environment. Many managers run their departments like fifedoms. So much of your experience at this company depends on your department. Some departments are great while others are horrible. There seems to be very little concern for how managers treat their staff. In sales and business development the sales commission/bonus structure changes constantly and the pay is low for this industry.

Pros

Benefits: health coverage, on-site gym, childcare, healthcare center, and more. Work-life balance: predictable hours, flexibility for parents and a culture that doesn't expect you to grind 60-hour weeks.

Cons

Compensation lags the market, slow career advancement and promotions can take years. Change-resistant culture and new ideas move slowly. Leadership team manages up to just one person.
