Pros

Decent pay Flex time Good stepping stone to start career Travel opportunities This is a good company to start a career, will help prepare for corporate business world, by showing the opportunities and potential pitfalls of corp America.

Cons

Favoritism (it's not what you know, it's who you know) Expectations are not realistic/achievable, which is demotivating Quality employees undervalued, under-recognized Often too internally focused, 'tick box" mentality Meetings for the sake of having meetings Don't expect reward for job well done. Everyone comes with their own siloed agenda to the table, and you will find yourself going nowhere very fast.

Pros

The team was great to work with and the general work environment was hard to beat

Cons

It felt like sales and upper management completely dropped the ball with our product. We had what could have been a large success in the market but we were too ignored to really push ourselves towards new customers. Pretty much the whole team was laid off as a result.
