      Pros

      -Professionally, it's easy to grow if you have legitimate experience. -Good location. -Great IT department.

      Cons

      -The reason why I left was simple, there is no transparency. My higher ups would tell me that honesty and transparency were a priority, and then they would tell me how good of a job they did convincing people to do what they wanted. It wasn't negotiating skills, they would lie to one to agree with the other. -They don't believe in recognition. If you do good, you do good because that's your job. If you go above and beyond, don't expect to receive a high five or a "good job" for it. -NEPOTISM is huge. If you go fishing with your boss and your wives are friends, you can help with decisions. -The culture makes it so that people have to agree with their higher ups, even if they disagree. Otherwise, you're put on a black list and will possibly get fired.

      Pros

      Moves fast, lots of opportunity to grow and get unique global experiences. Great compensation opportunities both short and long term. Company goes above and beyond to take care of their employees (e.g. hurricane relief, free lunches, drinks, snacks, etc.)

      Cons

      Company gets a bad wrap from a very specific function where the work is intense but the company is clear up front which isn't fair to management but would also say this role is not for the faint of heart...which I personally am a fan of the pace.
