Pros

Management tries and does care about the employees and company strategy and has shown willingness to take on risks in order to grow.

Antiquated IT infrastructure and the company is very dependent on legacy business. Highly competitive industry makes growth initiatives difficult to execute.

Pros

Great team! Benefits are good for the industry and area. HR is always available, the office environment is nice. The only reason I'm leaving is to join my husband out of state.

Cons

The office is located in downtown Bellevue. If you live close, the transit system is excellent. If you have to pay to park, cheap is $180/month.

Pros

Reasonable benefits, health, dental, life, 401K, Employee Stock Purchase, decent salary

Cons

Lack of integrity among management and HR. If you are not part of the inner management circle, you're opinions will be held against you regardless of the truth. If you are part of the inner circle, you can lie and still be held in high regard.
