Pros

-Very competitive pay. -Top notch benefits, including tuition reimbursement and monetary awards for obtaining licenses. -Flexible work environment. -Good opportunities available when business is good.

Cons

-Persistent bias and politicking. -Career development for employees takes a back seat to the ability to continually churn out work, creating monotonous tasks between projects. -Severe lack of recognition for talented, creative thinking, hard-working employees. Similarly, the incompetent and lazy subsist. -Supervisor feedback is a rarity, often times only occurring during the annually performance review. -Annual promotions are not performance-based – they are dependent on the quantity each manager is allowed to give out. If you miss the cut, you’re waiting an entire year. -Acceptable practice of allowing deliverables to be issued plagued with errors, and no accountability for the guilty.

Pros

Decent pay and interesting projects that allow for good professional development.

Cons

Absolutely horrendous work-life balance. I have been at the company for almost 20 years and their lack of support and flexibility for parents is incredibly disappointing. Going to the office requirements are unrealistic with little kids, and some of the newly minted managers are on a power trip, micromanaging high performers and quoting pto policies if you need to run 30min errands midday.
