Pros

Great benefits beyond the normal medical and dental. Flexibility in work hours. Concern for family life. Access to all the tools needed to do your job well. Additional training is encouraged and paid up front (other than additional Education for Masters+ degrees that are reimbursed).

Cons

Depending on the organization, there are some areas that are difficult or overly stressful at work. Again, depending on the organization, there are a number of internal click’s, you are either in or out. Some of the senior management (not all) has an attitude about physical fitness, the better you physically (health/exercise low body fat index) are the better you are perceived.

Pros

Relaxing work environment. Everyone is relaxed but remains productive. Burnout and turnover rate is low. Projects are visionary and interesting. Great benefits.

Cons

No clear upward career path. Not for ambitious employees who seek extra reward and bonus. Management is a bit too loose.
