Pros

As a union shop, our pay and benefits are unbeatable. I love the people I work with - even my coach/supervisor. Tons of time off available as well.

Cons

Waaaaay too much stress doing 2 live chats at a time. Even our emails have each become 14 paragraphs of complex complaints we can't possibly resolve in time to meet our stats.

Pros

The health benefits and the 401k match are good in addition to the yearly bonus. There are many job opportunities if you work in the Basking Ridge location.

Cons

The location of the head quarters in Basking Ridge makes it difficult for young employees to live close to work due to the high cost of living therefore commutes are rather long for most employees.

Pros

good work environment, flexible work schedule to balance your work and professional life. excellent coworkers, broad knowledge base across many areas of expertise, excellent opportunity to keep your technical skills current by working on a broad range of projects. good educational reimbursement. good bonus structure at the end of the year.

Cons

management had announced a while ago that layoffs would continue till the company becomes profitable again, so every quarter there is a day when layoffs happen and you are reminded that no matter how hard you work, your situation is very tenuous. (as I found out last quarter when I got "the call")
