Pros

- good benefits: 401k match, insurance, turkey for each employee at Thanksgiving, etc. - nice building: store, nice cafeteria, caribou coffee in the building - since the parking lot is so spread out they have a shuttle service to bring you to the front of the building

Cons

- very long hours, even though I specified I was looking for a good work/life balance in my interview (and was told that would not be a problem at my level of employment) I was still working 50 hours a week. My supervisor and manager were working even longer hours and brought work home with them at night. - my supervisor was not good at delegating, I found myself having to continuously ask for what I should be doing next, didn't have a set of responsibilities - I did not find it to be the most friendly working environment, even in my small department there wasn't much camaraderie.
