Pros

Free milk. WHOOPIE!!! 401k match is excellent and the cafeteria is nice. The building is also beautiful (from last CEO).

Cons

Everyone blames the executives but the real problem is the Board of Directors. Board needs more truly independent members. The few they have are more concerned about collecting the paycheck for fitting in not solving problems. The company has lost a number of good people in the last few years (excluding the Ex-CFO who was an idiot). The company is artificially unprofitable because the owners take all the money in their milk check. This is done so they don't have to pay bonuses.

Milk doesn't always do a body good

Pros

Good 401K. Ability to work at my own pace and make my own schedule. Little to no micro managing. Free parking and bus passes.

Cons

There isn't much room for growth and if there is, it's a very slow process. People are nice but on the surface. I don't know anyone in the building that is actually friends outside of work - just not a very fun environment. People don't work cross functionally and there are a lot of silos. It's a mans world so good luck getting promoted if you are a woman....I don't think there are any women VPs and very few women managers. It's not horrible ...it looks good on a resume but it's not a place to stay long term if you are young.
