Pros

Friendly work environment Supportive coworkers Energetic management Great employee discount Good benefits package Flexible schedule (most of the time); easy to adjust if you know in advance

Cons

Low wages Long hours High expectations not in line with reality or reflective of pay Little opportunity to move upwards or laterally Departments change with little notice and completely change your work environment, but there is no permitted "adjustment period"

Pros

Eh... its in the city?

Cons

Not a good working environment. Need to wade through piles of bureaucracy before anything can be accomplished. Was the only non-outsourced member of my time. Way too many people in the QA department which significantly delays releases.
