Pros

Work / Life balance is good.

Cons

If you work the amount expected of you, you are fine. Produce more, then you are continuously expected to produce more. Don't do it - the difference in the amount of raises is not worth the work. Want a promotion? This can take a while. My promotion has been "in the works" for nearly a year. I started this March of 2011. I was given every excuse by my manager why the papers were never filed. I would admit the exuses were very good. Now, in January 2012, still no promotion, and now we have just had an announcement from the CEO stating that merit raises are being postponed from April 2012 to July 2012. This is not a worthwhile employer.

Pros

Compensation is competitive, as long as you aren't looking for growth opportunities. The benefits options are decent. The hours and demands are pretty tolerable.

Cons

Company wants to be innovative, but won't do what is necessary (ie invest in it's infrastructure or employees). Company culture is not as a leader or risk taker. Middle management is too afraid of self preservation and their own status... the motto is don't rock the boat. Managers aren't very proactive or engaging with staff, even verging on disrespectful or condescending.
