Ok place.

Pros

People are nice, seems consistent, you can work there for awhile without getting laid off. I don't really know anymore pros for this at least in my experience.

Cons

Your movement through the company is lateral. You want a challenge or even a raise, you might want to look somewhere else.

Mediocre at best: Decent pay, but it ends there

Pros

The pay is decent, and the hours aren't crazy.

Cons

They offer virtually nothing in terms of any additional employee perks. There is a Christmas get-together once a year and that is it. Nothing to build teams beyond that (although this may be different in satellite branches). They do nothing to keep their employees engaged or happy. On long weekends (think Labor Day) they may shoot you an email at 3:30 letting you leave at 4:00 -- that's the best extra perk you'll get. The open office environment is completely distracting. They spend most of the year indicating how great they're doing financially, then at bonus time they claim it's been a flat year and dish out the standard amount. Middle management is more of a distraction than a help. They say they want this great culture and value system, but do next to nothing to promote it or make it a reality. Essentially, they do the least they possibly can.
