Pros

It is a positive environment where everyone is treated fairly. The management is approachable and easy to talk to. The company takes care of it's employees and is always wanting to know how to make the workplace better. I liked working on teams that were smaller. I felt like I got the chance to know my team mates and my supervisor better. I liked how the company has a focus on our customers. I believe that they do everything they can to take care of the customer. I felt like I had some choices for the customer and that made my job enjoyable.

Cons

There are opportunities for promotions, but getting a position as a supervisor is not easy. I had co workers that worked there as long as I did and still had not been able to get a supervisor position. You get a lot of feedback when you work there. You have a lot of interaction with your supervisor, but I liked that. But if you are someone that doesn't want to talk to their supervisor everyday and have them very involved with what your doing, you may not want to work here. I also wish there were more offices around the US.

Pros

Great benefits and the people there were very easy to work with. The people there are very easy to work with.

Cons

The interview process is very long. It takes months of phone interviews and several in person interviews to even land a place in the final pairing. That is a downside along with being a positive because it verifies a person really wants to join CG and make a career of it. Also,things moved pretty slowly there. There is a lot of parts to the decisojn making process but it seems to take too make for key decisions to be made. Sometimes key personal was lost during a long decison making process.

Pros

Great benefits and a work environment that makes it fun to come in every day. No matter what your role is within the company, the management wants to hear from you and they respect your opinions as an associate. Also, there is tremendous room for growth within all aspects of the company.

Cons

This is a large company so naturally there may be some downside. It is definitely natural to sometimes feel left out during certain periods, but as you grow within the company, you get to define your own area of expertise. Also, room for advancement can sometimes be tough.
