Pros

Good pay, great benefits, decent work life balance. Colleagues were great to work with, and direct report manager was respectful and honest.

Cons

Layoffs are nearly quarterly, so do not expect to work there long if you are not on a long project. All training for advancement was expected to be done on your own time with limited and scattered resources.

Pros

Decent pay, decent benefits including medical, 401k matching and health incentive programs. Many work location options available.

Cons

HR has generally poor knowledge of employment laws for the state they do business in; example, during orientation they needed to be told that in CA, vacation is not "use it or lose it". Their internal web tools for HR and maintaining employee records and information are antiquated. Management provides no real insight to business status and is far separated from the general employee.
