Pros

If you are someone that has the right charisma, there are opportunities to move ahead. If you don't, forget it.

Cons

The gaps in communication are glaringly obvious. I have never worked for a more heirarchal organization in my life. It's very clear who the organization considers to be important and who they don't. If you're down low on that totem pole, you will get minimal, if any, communication/information. The organization is way more old-fashioned (read: cheap) than the dot com in their name would signify.

Pros

- Great place for an entry level person starting out. - Free Lunch - Known for their high quality compensation data set - BCBS Healthcare is great - Most individual contributors are really nice -Management knows their internal processes well.

Cons

-Upper Management is haphazard with poor communication. -VC's are squeezing every ounce of profit at the expense of employees. -Pay is docked for not hitting in office participation quota. -RIF's are used to remove older workers and alleviate their salary compression issue. -Goals and priorities are constantly changing. -Tasks are constantly added then focus shifts to something new. Not well thought out. - The constant changes make it feel like a test environment for a business case. Changes are not well thought out and poorly implemented. And then scrapped when they fail. - There is little regard for the individual contributor. - Advancement opportunities are dependent on political circle not performance. -Base pay is low. Takes 4 years to make competitive industry compensation.
