Pros

The people I met, the hours, pay and the location were the best things about the company. This was about all I can say is great about the company. I continued to work here for 5 going on 6 years only because of the pay.

Cons

Poor training, Difficult to take PTO, Managers who keep secrets about company changes, random lay offs & very unfair/harassing management. HIGH TURNOVER RATE & unhappy unappreciated employees. How tenured you are or how much experience you have means nothing in regards to promotions unless your "A good ol' boy" with management (Inside and outside) of work.

Pros

Competitive compensation, decent benefits, really nice facilities (new building, gym, cafeteria). A lot going on, so fairly good opportunity to expand one's role if you are proactive.

Cons

A culture that values speed to a fault and then is surprised when errors occur, endless iterations of presentations, etc., top management that thinks they know everything, which can make it tough to add value if you are sharp (this would at least be a good learning experience if they actually did know everything, but they don't)

Management positions tend to last no more than 2 years. Company does not promote internally.
