Solid, but big and slow

Pros

Solid revenues, friendly people, pleasant work environment, competitive salaries. The company definitely isn't going to go out of business anytime soon, but it might not really take off either.

Cons

There's a lot of office politics, which can be bad if you end up on the wrong side of a dispute. The office is in Glendale, and if you live in other parts of LA the commute can be brutal. The health insurance plan is barely worth it -- buying your own is cheaper.

Pros

Paid vacation, medical, dental, and vision benefits. Free meals.

Cons

Virtually no possibility for promotion from within. Those promoted from within are not always deserving of the position they hold. Management does not empower their employees, so there is no pride in ownership. John Suh, books can be written about your habit of not answering questions but rather, painting a vivid picture while you dance around the issue. The prevailing attitude of the Glendale office and its team members being superior to all others in the outlying locations is not only demotivating to the individuals working for the company in these offices, but it feeds an atmosphere of not getting work done. Sales have taken a dip this year. Hard working employees were laid off and sent packing while ineffective managers with little leadership skills remained with their six figure salaries intact.
