Pros

You'll be rewarded in free food often. There is some flexibility to work from home. The company will pay for courses related to your job. You can speak to a health coach and do other healthy activities to save money on health premiums.

Cons

There's a lack of room for career advancement. Titles are bumped down so you are undervalued so if promoted you'll be back at your starting title. Tools are antiquated.

Pros

Interesting programs, innovation, directly and peripherally helping people, strong company history and culture and name recognition. Good benefits and fair wage for the work done.

Cons

The upper leadership (Director/VP) churn was IMMENSE. The average time they seemed to last was 8-10 months before moving to a new position. This constant churn led to a lot of uncertainty for underlings and a lack of coherent focus. It also meant you could have worked on an excellent project with strong results that was completely unrecognized by the next person who came in. Most employees have a constant fear of being fired due to the churn.

Pros

Everyone starts off with sense of purpose and helping people. Many employees still maintain that spirit.

Cons

Poor work-life balance. Many people don't use all their vacation days. Every project is treated like a fire drill. Poor leadership in upper management. People running around working like crazy to meet deadlines and then upper management decides to table the project or change it's focus. Difficult to move up if you are not chummy with the inner circle and threaten others with your potential
