Pros

The company pays well, provides benefits for healthcare/dental/etc., has many on-site benefits if you work on campus, allow some workers to work remote, actively work towards bettering the company to be more environmentally friendly and strives towards working with humane and environmentally friendly vendors/suppliers.

Cons

You'll be kept busy with actual work actions that are beneficial to the company or your account. There are too many benefits to choose from and you'll have to make your selection of what to use or spend your time on or rotate through to utilize everything.

Pros

- The company itself is doing well financially, allowing departments to take on bigger projects - Great work-life balance culture and unlimited PTO that actually allows for generate usage - Casual culture that encourages collaboration - Non-salary benefits are strong, with even lower-level employees benefiting from the stock purchase plan

Cons

- Despite its strong position, the company does trim headcount for the sake of efficiency - Work ethic seems complacent, but is offset by company's strong financial standing - Management can be cut-throat, but strong performers usually do well - Salaries are below market rate
