Pros

The relaxed atmosphere, cafeteria, free coffee, gym

Cons

This is not a company that pays for performance. High performers will be unhappy here. If you are used to completing tasks, you will need to learn to "chill out" here or you will be unhappy. We laugh internally when a project is suggested to take a month, we say 3-6 months because we are here.

Pros

There is freedom to approach each project as you see fit. Strong support from senior leadership.

Cons

When several programs peak at the same time the hours start to creep up pretty quickly.

internal data silos, lack of uniform internal guidelines result in folks reinventing the wheel.
