Pros

Great career opportunities if you're willing to look for them. Compensation/Benefits package is competative with market. New compensation and benefit plans are constantly being reviewed to reward hard working employees. Company is always looking forward and looking for new markets/clients, which provides opportunity to employees. Great corporate support (IT, Accounting, Marketing, etc.) even though under market for staffing those departments. Great collaboration between departments and teams.

Cons

Many of the compensation benefits are in place to reward technical staff and not corporate staff. Communication of the company vision doesn't always flow all the way through from senior management to staff. Some sense of entitlement from staff that opportunities and compensation will be handed to them. Reduction in force (RIF) in 2013 hurt company culture. Company continues to work to rebuild positive culture.
