Pros

--Beautiful, clean, well-lit office that is easy to get to via public transportation --Friendly people. People you don't even work with smile at you as they pass you by in the hall --Cafeteria inside of the office with a variety of food that is relatively cheaper than the food sold outside of the office. --Diversity in staff in race, gender, sexual orientation. --Great scholarship and volunteer initiatives --Excellent team environment for full-time workers --Flexible schedule for part-time workers

Cons

--Low pay --No room for advancement. --Lack of adequate communication between management and employees. --Lack of diversity in management --An unwillingness to try new educational methods and technologies. --More profit-driven and less focused on creating genuine relationships with customers --Much of the staff works remotely, so a sense of genuine community in the company is lost.
