Pros

Great team until the office was closed.

Cons

Management won’t stand by their promises. It seems like anything will be done to save money at employee’s expense.

Pros

Competitive salaries. Comprehensive benefits package (though the health insurance co-pays and deductibles are high)

Cons

Lack of investment in training and development of senior non-management employees. Limited visibility, inclusion and advancement opportunity from within. Absence of standardization of technology stack results in unnecessary effort and cost to build "one off" solutions. Inconsistent application of policies (e.g., telecommuting). Accountability for employee results needs to be consistent.
