Pros

Great benefits, company cares about employees, positive outlook

Cons

Associate directors have trouble dealing with their specific position, being in between making the people above them happy and the people below them happy. Most job openings are created with certain people in mind, tough to move up in the company if your not that individual

Pros

Great benefits. Still small enough to care about employees. Mostly good people who are fun to work with.

Cons

They don't get rid of the bad apples and if they do it takes way too long and good people have already fled. Too many management layers.
