      Pros

      Benefits at FM are amazing and they're constantly adding new perks Work/Life Balance is great. Work from home opportunities Perks - Online classes, tuition reimbursement even discounts to stores around town. Career advancement - a lot of opportunities to move around within the company Technology - FM strives to stay at the cutting edge of technology, it allows us to play around and learn a lot of new technologies.

      Cons

      The company is constantly changing with new technology and reorgs. Some of this is hit or miss, they're usually corporate fast when reverting bad decisions (corporate fast is 6 months - 1 year or so). Promotion opportunities are slow, but that's specific to my team

      Pros

      Excellent experience, good pay/bonus, work/life balance, 8% company match for 401k (100% up to 6% plus the company adds an additional 2% on top of that)

      Cons

      Tough to move up sometimes (especially into Director/VP roles) because of such low attrition at the company. Can be discouraging but the pay, benefits, and overall depth of experience outweigh this con.

      Many opportunities for career moves. Management could use additional training.

      Pros

      It is a large company with many opportunities for lateral career moves and upward mobility. The compensation and benefits are generally meet industry average.

      Cons

      Job titles and pay grades are confusing and sometimes inappropriate based on the role. Varying levels of experience amongst managers with different standards of performance expectations (some are harsher or more perfectionistic while some are more lenient or more realistic) and sometimes unclear, shared, or split responsibility for employees which is a common management mistake. Work/life balance varies across different teams as some teams offer less flexibility than others. Visible difference between treatment of FTEs and contractors. Common theme amongst numerous contractors that they wouldn't want to work at the company full-time.
