Pros

- Large scale customers, some very challenging projects - Good benefits.

Cons

Speaking only about the Northwest team I worked with, and this does not even highlight all my issues: - I've realized that that they're out to hire CCIE's left and right just for the prestige of it. - My base salary has stayed the same the period I was there. - No recognition for any of my achievements, including a second CCIE in a category in which I was the only one certified in the whole company. Yet no one sought my expertise, and at some point was even told this was "worthless" even though there's a whole practice around it. - Consistently denied chances to to move up despite being acknowledged that I'm qualified to, - Alot of nepotism going on and people getting laid off in favor of relatives taking their positions. An Associate Project Manager significantly younger than me kept moving around a lot and somehow ended up being my manager. - No work/life balance. I was relocated to Seattle at my own expense, only to end being shipped all over the country most of the year rather than do local work. - Once I told them I was leaving I was treated like a traitor, no one would speak to me. I've never been made to feel so insignificant before.

Pros

Great culture. Teams work well together toward success while maintaining honesty, integrity and humility. WWT has innovative technology advantages over competitors. Organic growth of great customers, partners and employees alike. Rapid growth creates a lot of opportunity.

Cons

Growing rapidly creates challenges. Feels like a small company that got big really fast. Doesn't always have crystal clear processes - however with everyone's positive attitude, work ethic and culture, things just get done.
