Pros

- downtown Bellevue location (ideal for shopping) - office is nice - 401K matching

Cons

Turnover in Finance is ridiculously high, and it seemed to have gotten worse in recent years. At least 70% of people in Finance were hired within the last two years. Hard work & being loyal team player won’t get you far. Pay is low and expectations are unreasonable. Management will do what it takes to protect their friends and promote them even if they are not qualified for jobs. Once you become a target of management, they will make your work life miserable. Finance department is a revolving door – smart employees leave within a year once they figure out quickly that this place is where you end your career.

Health and Dental coverage was average. Time off was less than other insurance companies in the area. Bonuses and raises are not great. Systems are either nonexistent or non functioning.
