Good and Not so good

Pros

Good location, nice campus and office facilities, free cookies on Fridays and Breakfast on Wednesday, Summer family outing. Benefits and 401k profit share are good Good work-life balance A pleasure to work with nice and very smart colleagues

Cons

1. Beware the annual review process. The best way to describe it is draconian and demoralizing. 2. No opportunity to grow or advance. Careers die here. 3. You get 3 work at home days so choose carefully! They are intended to be used for staying home with a sick child, bad weather (hurricane/snow), waiting for a repairman, etc... 4. Weak and uninspiring management. Lots of cronyism.

Pros

Very friendly and supportive co-workers. Awesome perks. Company really cares about employees. Lot of opportunities for leadership roles. Easy switch to different teams. They are getting bigger every year, so its exciting to be a part of the growth.

Cons

Review process is too elaborate. Stakeholder plan is a major part of salary without which salary looks just average.

Pros

Great benefits including annual outing in NH with family. Great products, culture and fun place to work. Formal processes/procedures defined, but exceptions are acceptable with reason. Collaborative teams. Excellent work-life balance.

Cons

Slow to promote from within. Like most companies, some strong personalities become the squeaky wheel and gets all the attention. Inflexible work from home policy.
