Nice work environment but comes with a price

Pros

Awesome benefits if you stay for 6 years. The coworkers are super nice and helpful, focus on work life balance.

Cons

Extremely beaurocratic, the managements puts very inefficient procedures in place and does not understand the downstream implications. The pay is poor, especially in San Francisco and New York. No upward mobility and opportunities. The company likes complacent people with no creativity - if you are a go-getter you would be in the wrong place.

Pros

Pretty chill job compared to others I've had in the same industry. You can get in at 9am and leave at 5pm and nobody will bat an eye.

Cons

If you're a high performer, expectations are through the roof. The feel is very pseudo-government because people just don't get fired here. Lots of people coast and management's not great dealing with conflict, so they look the other way.
