Pros

New building in 2020 will be cool if you can make it that long here.

Cons

Leadership is the most disorganized I've witnessed in my career. Initiatives change from one week to the next so often that half your work will be unused and long term projects never come to fruition as they are constantly thrown in the back log. Technology is nonexistent here, be ready to work with small screens and slow computers that will make any large data sets hell to work with. Internal data is a mess and caused problems daily for nearly everyone I interacted with during my time here; it's 2018 and still lacking a central database. As a result of all of this, team morale was often very poor.

Pros

The salary was respectable and company does pay decent bonuses, from what I hear. I was laid off prior to bonus so I am only going off what was verbally promised to me.

Cons

Outdated technology, burdensome paperwork, laborious and onerous processes, bureaucratic, and very unpleasant work culture.
