      Great company, but a lot to be desired

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Decent pay (but don’t expect any big raises) Good benefits, stock program Flexible with time off Good people work for the company

      Cons

      Management is more concerned with KPI’s (key performance indicators), than helping individuals find their path for the future. When I started, there was lots of talk about guidance for career goals, but ZERO follow up. My manager changed about every 1.5-2 years, which was obnoxious. They WILL make you do lots of overtime and somehow it always happens during the summer. Minimal opportunity for upward movement.

      Pros

      There are not many pros.

      Cons

      Your career is not important to management. You are just a number.
