Pros

On-site cafeteria, free parking, in-house gym

Cons

Very vertical--management is remote even if they share the same physical space. Subsequently, there is little room for bottom-up ideas or innovation--management sets the goals, and each level there under is expected to conform their goals to achieving those set at the top. Fine for some, stultifying for others.

Pros

Forward thinking company with good leadership and excellent benefits! Generous vacation time and you are encouraged to use it. Love the on-site health/medical clinic, gym and fitness classes. They recently increased the 401(k) company match and have brought back casual Fridays. In addition, this year jeans can be worn in the summer months. They also offer a very robust Corporate Social Responsibility program. The company is growing a lot is always ways to work smarter.

Cons

None come to mind other than the cafeteria with their sub par food.
