Want to work hard, make an impact and never be thanked and over-managed?

Pros

At one point I managed a single person and had three managers over me. All three had absolutely no idea what I was working on, despite sharing weekly updates, reports, invites to important meetings. Would try to meet with direct manager and she repeatedly cancelled, didn't show up, etc. Was offered a position that required more work, responsibilities and told I wouldn't get a raise.

Cons

Women make less than men. One raise after 4 years and after two promotions.

Pros

Great company to have on your resume. Relaxed and perfect if you aren't a driven type-a personality. if it's more important to have friends at work then building a career path, this is a good company for you. no judgement, as i understand how important it is to like the people you work with but you do have to sacrifice something to get that here.

Cons

lack of bigger vision, weak management, no protocol for reviews or advancement. all seems to be done on a whim.

Pros

Lunch provided two-three days a week, fully stocked kitchen with good food, nice desks and chairs.

Cons

Lack of skilled managers leading departments, department direction is kept a secret or not even thought out. Little to no room for career advancement and/or growth. Pay is very very low, and not commensurate to skills and work performed. Reviews are based completely on feelings, and not about productivity and professional contribution. Management has no loyalty to low-tier workers, and offers no room for upward mobility. Only the very few succeed.
