Pros

Out at 5 o'clock. Nobody really hassels you about long lunches, leaving for appointments. Good benefit package is provided, including 401k which they match.

Cons

It is very difficult for people in my position to move up. I have an MBA, which I was able to complete while working. I was led to believe that a promotion would soon follow after completion of school. There wasn't.

Pros

There is a good work/life balance here. It's great if you're furthering your education, or have kids, etc. and need a more flexible work schedule. The 401k plan isn't too bad either.

Cons

The compensation is well under market rate. The bonus is a joke. It used to be a good place to work just because your job was almost "guaranteed" but now that they're now very actively outsourcing whole and parts of departments to cheaper cities in the US & overseas, there really is not much benefit to working here. The focus is ONLY on client service to the exclusion of the employee. If your job can be done cheaper anywhere else in the world, your time at this company is limited .

Pros

Management does a good job of recognizing their employees needs outside of work and help to produce a solid work/life balance.

Cons

Biggest downsides include: low pay with low incentives, room for growth is limited, company does not promote inner-institution job opportunities.
