Pros

When your CEO approaches you and begins speaking in a manner that you would expect from a longtime friend, you know you've struck gold. It's quite common to receive the same engagement from all branches stemming from him. The culture and values are truly unique. Daily huddles, weekly site team meetings, specified associate level meetings, motivational seminars, company outings, random gifts and contests, teambuilding days, giving back to the community and supporting charities, training designed to captivate, unlimited access to tools and resources, exposure to a multitude of software and technology. Cortland cultivates their people into highly self aware individuals, where leaders are born and the essence of family surrounds you.

Cons

Once you work for Cortland, you fear the boredom you might face after leaving In the event you seek employment elsewhere and the interviewer asks 'What would you consider the most difficult task you've faced in your career?', your answer will likely be "Making the decision to leave Cortland". There are so many cool things to play with and explore, so you stay late and your friends call you names like 'workaholic'. A little advice, don't correct your friends; if you tell them you were having fun, they get jealous.
