Pros

Easy access to tollway system. Adequate employee parking. Comfortable office environment/surroundings. Cafeteria on company premises.

Cons

Restrictive policy on working from home (downgraded with new mgmt). Confusing, convoluted, misguided directions from Marketing Director. Wasteful, time-consuming projects. Lack of attention and consideration of employee comments/guidance with respect to new initiatives and legacy processes. Refusal to heed advice and expertise from work colleagues with substantially more experience and know-how pertaining to marketing principles/procedures. Lack of clarity from Marketing Director with regards to implementing new projects (pros/cons). Cut throat work environment where upper mgmt. takes credit for successes and and blames fellow employees for failures. Non-cohesive team (lack of direction and focus to properly execute given plans). Long hours, hectic days, always on call. Senior Mgmt. will contact by email or phone to ask work related questions on days off.

Pros

PTO, nice people, some flexibility in working from home

Cons

Constant reorganizations, too much outsourcing, reviews are one-sided (manager side), constant layoffs, especially of older workers, negatives done in North America because they wouldn't get away with it in Europe.

Pros

No Pros to working here.

Cons

Motion Detection Sensors are installed underneath your desk to track your time. Micromanaged. Expect to be fired unless excessive overtime, without compensation, is worked each and every week. Minimum 50-60 hours every week. The software is old, very old. They use DOS to program.
