Not bad, but not amazing. Fun co-workers and reasonable work-life balance. Narrow corporate vision.

Pros

Really nice people, great retirement benefits.

Cons

The company doesn't have much vision for the future. They're very narrowly focused. While their retirement matching is good, they have a ridiculous vesting schedule for employees.
