Pros

Flexible with scheduling, offers benefits to part time employees, locations throughout the valley, at one time there were quarterly bonuses and tuition reimbursement (good if it comes back).

Cons

Difficult to advance within company, unprofessional upper-management, too much bureaucracy-too many managers, you aren't empowered to make decisions on your own, system issues/problems, very rude members get away with too much, increased cost of benefits, company withheld pay raises and continue too (supposedly until Q3-2011), discontinued quarterly bonuses and tuition reimbursement, closed and potentially closing locations, incentive compensation not comparable to other financial institutions-pay much less at DS, management 'cliques' remind you much of high school.

Pros

They are mostly flexible with my schedule when I need time off. There used to be quarterly bonuses that all non-management could get if we hit certain goals as an organization, they used to provide 401k matching, tuition and book reimbursement, and carpool incentives.

Cons

There have been no raises in 3 years and it's unlikely we'll get one next year. They have "suspended" all of the incentives I listed above and on top of that our healthcare costs have gone WAY up. So it's virtually a pay cut. Aside from that there is no opportunity for growth unless you know someone.

Pros

Great Benefits Package, Friendly Fellow Co-workers, Lots of Community Involvement by the Company, Community/family feeling within the company. Plus there's an onsite cafeteria that serves decent food for what you pay. Overall it is an enjoyable environment to work in.

Cons

Management to Staff Communication Issues (though this is common with almost all companies), didn't always appreciate the little people in the less prominent departments.
