Pros

I have been at this company about six years and every year I've been able to seek out participating in new and interesting projects and opportunities. - Community involved company - Job Flexibility. Many managers promote work/life balance. Some jobs offer some work from home opportunities or hours that may shift early or late as needed by the employee - Most employees are excited and invested in their jobs - This company is on the rise and regularly diving into new territory, ideas are encouraged, and every year their seems to be more support and cooperation between divisions and departments. - GREAT management from the top down, I feel if I needed to I could email the CEO directly and get a response - HUGE benefits including education, Volunteering, Toastmasters, Blue fridays, and employee events

Cons

- NOT the most competitive vacation or sick leave plan - Parking is expensive and not free (However they offer great subsidized alternatives)

Pros

Coworkers are pleasant to work with.

Cons

Management is severely lacking in day to day job functions of their staff, they target anyone they do not like regardless of that person’s job performance. Managers are out of touch with what their staff is doing and they pick favorites. HR supports this behavior and will railroad you right out the door while destroying your mental health. Senior HR members see nothing wrong with targeting staff members based on who they “like”, and they lie to your face when you challenge it. Working 12+ hour days is necessary to keep up with the workload they put on you.
