Pros

Stable company that won't be going out of business soon.

Cons

Stuffy, male centric company that has very few women in leadership positions. If you are thinking of moving up quickly this isn't the company for you. It takes YEARS to move up and you have to work extremely hard to be noticed and have luck on your side to get promoted. Don't plan on getting promoted into a leadership position without a masters degree.

Pros

Great people to work with and great location in downtown Bellevue. There are lots of learning opportunities and plenty of hands on experience.

Cons

On average, most accountants work quite a few hours. Management could provide more productive and timely feedback, especially positive feedback.

Pros

Quality products and proud history; enviable record of profitability; some really bright and talented people scattered throughout the company. Benefits (including an increasingly rare pension plan) are generally OK, other than the fact that equity compensation is limited to a very small group.

Cons

Old-school culture; management is not participative. The executive floor of the depressing old edifice in Bellevue rules by fear. Innovative young people tend to suffocate there, while drones can survive for years. It takes forever to make decisions. Dress code at corporate headquarters is extremely conservative, at least for males.
