Pros

Ok for work life balance.

Cons

Very low compensation. They want talent but not willing to pay for it. Have done away with some employee friendly programs over the last few years, seemingly to cut costs. Also get the feel they want to control (micro manage) their employees. Very old school management mentality / atmosphere. Little wonder on the employee turnover.

Pros

The thing that keeps me here is being able to dress casual and being able to come in anywhere between 6-8am. It's not too bad of a place, it's pretty chill and because of the volume of employees you can blend in. There is a good diversity of people here.

Cons

Mandatory overtime. I hear compensation is below average (which is good in a way because they don't expect as much out of you.) I think our department has low moral. We usually have to go to another department to find out what is going on in our own department. Our department has a high turn over rate. Our yearly pay increase is around 2%.
