Steady job, not a meritocracy

Pros

Good insurance, benefits, work / life balance for everyone. If you are really good friends or sleeping with a member of upper management then you can expect a very cushy job.

Cons

Not a meritocracy. Expect a steady job with really nice benefits, below average pay, and little chance of promotion.

Pros

Great people that work there and a solid company financially. Opportunities to grow and many entry level opportunities to start at.

Cons

Too much change, in terms of both frequency and structure. There is not a real opportunity to establish a direction to evaluate before it is switched. Lots of politics, definitely a who you know type organization versus abilities. Putting more and more work on associate shoulders due to budget/position cuts.
