Down the drain.....

Pros

Semi-competative salary. Decent health benefits. Standard vacation plan (3 weeks to start).

Cons

POLITICAL. Middle management is willing to throw you under the bus! More red tape than action. Spends money on crap projects and delays things that are worth-while. Extremely short-sighted management. It wasn't like that in the beginning. It amazes me that they have been able to stay anywhere on the great places to work list! They won't stay there for long. Employees are leaving the sinking ship in droves!

Pros

Smart people, energetic and great collaborators who are willing to get things done at lower levels.

Cons

Too many managers/directors who are not effective leaders. Bad individual contributors that got promoted or hired due to "club" clique causing politics.

Pros

For the first several years, it was great. Great culture, amazing people, high morale. I was proud to work here and recommended anyone who wanted to join.

Cons

In the past 1 1/2 years, the company has gone downhill. Executive decisions are way off the mark. They flip flop in their go to market strategy and the leaders they are bringing on these days are really destroying the amazing culture it used to have.
