Pros

People are treated very well at Fisher-Price Great people Fun work/products Good benefits Good pay Good work/life balance (the only exception might be Marketing, but that's what you should expect as a business leader) 1/2 day Fridays Great cafeteria and gym Generous paid time off East Aurora is a great place to live Buffalo is close-knit and alot of fun for people into sports, dining, and going out Multiple holiday parties

Cons

Promotions are lobsided towards (not surprisingly) Marketing Promotions based not only on performance but also who is popular ("in the club") The snow - seriously, plan to buy a heavy-duty snowblower if you're moving there A lack of racial & cultural diversity in the area as a whole. The Fisher-Price HQ is way out in the boondocks away from Buffalo.

Pros

Good benefits if you get hired.

Cons

They mostly hire temp employees so they don’t have to pay benefits, but you aren’t temp. You are full time.
