Pros

Everyone writes about the food. The food is good, but I'm told there has been some discussion of charging employees for it. If you're taking a job for the food, you probably are taking the job for the wrong reason, so ignore all mentions of good food. That's not your job. Apart from that, it's fun to work in a high-volume, high-speed environment.

Cons

Management has always been very weak, and apparently still is. There is no discernible "leadership" despite young folks with big egos and matching salaries assuming the mantle and embracing their titles. Sure, the returned CEO is saying "no" more, but he's too late. His ego and attitude were so off-putting when he arrived that exactly the people who should have stayed - those with opinions, and upset, about the company's failures to that point ... left or were shoved out in the grudge-layoffs of October 2015.

Pros

The company offers good benefits and company wide perks.

Cons

The Finance and Accounting department suffers from favoritism, nepotism, and poor leadership. Promotions and opportunities appear to be driven more by personal relationships than by performance, contributions, or expertise. The Accounting Controller demonstrates biased and unprofessional leadership, which has created a culture of low accountability and poor morale. High performers are often overlooked while favored individuals continue to advance despite limited contributions. The department relies heavily on outdated and manual processes that create inefficiencies and unnecessary work. There seems to be little urgency to modernize systems or improve operations. The culture also tolerates underperformance, with inconsistent expectations and accountability across team members. This can be frustrating for employees who value merit, professionalism, and continuous improvement.
