Pros
Paid slightly better than other companies I've worked for.
Cons
I was ostensibly hired to improve the quality of the company's documentation from an editorial standpoint. During my brief tenure there, I was praised, often lavishly, for my contributions toward that goal -- yet I was fired, with no verbal or written warning, within months, for "not fitting in." I had been warned, pre-hire, by prospective coworkers, of less-than-optimal work conditions especially with regard to noise. I had worked in open-area companies before. However, nothing prepared me for the active culture of raucous noise that I encountered at Inflexxion. Projects requiring intense concentration were expected to be completed, under razor-thin deadlines, in an atmosphere routinely permeated with people shouting to one another and using speakerphones in the open area; long, loud, non-work-related conversations in adjacent cubes were not just tolerated but encouraged. My "reasonable accommodation" requests for a quieter work area and a flexible telecommute day (to allow for matching the quickest-turnaround, most detailed projects with conditions conducive to giving them the focus they deserved) were met with intransigence by management and with open derision by HR -- this at a company whose avowed mission is to help people "achieve a better state of health" and that claims to have "a strong sense of social responsibility."
