Good brand, Too many VPs

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

It's a good brand to have on the resume. Annual raises (small, but better than nothing), education reimbursement, holiday bonus, decent vacation days. Overall good people. Departments care about the people in them.

Cons

Very corporate, a lot of internal politics. Very hard to get promoted, little structure within departments. A lot of top management fighting for power, leaves more work on the lower levels and more ambiguity. A lot of obstacles to get simple approvals.

Business Outlook

Pros

You get to meet many exciting people. The company has everything not only sports driven activities so you'll always have something to look forward to.

Cons

After a while you can be bored. The position is not called internship because it's more hands on but after a while you're doing things supervisors don't want to do.
