Pros

Great Salary and Great benefits

Cons

Leadership is not transparent. Does not allow open dialogue! Always looking to put you down, not build you up.

Pros

good benefit, including both pay, health insurance and retirement

Cons

In this company, you just need to network to succeed, you don't need to perform or deliver anything tangible. the best asset you can have is lip service. as long as someone on the top likes you, you are on the right track. If you actually have some capabilities of doing something, go to some other company that will reward your talents.
