Pros

-Career advancement to the top 5% of performers (as it should be, why promote from the second quartile?) -Competitive pay -Annual Merit increases up to 12% -Fabulous benefits -The CEO will tear up at the thought of ever laying anyone off. youre\ job is 100% safe.

Cons

As you can see from some of these reviews, people who aren't good at their jobs are the loudest ones. They will be very nice people who you'd like to be friends with but they are constantly complaining why their bad numbers aren't their fault. Its hard to balance being friendly with people like that and being lumped in with their attitudes. As a result, if you are looking for advancement you can only be friends with other people who take responsibility for their numbers. The "dependability" can be a little harsh, but if you are only calling out when its a genuine need you'll be fine. The people saying "you cant have a family" are probably calling in over colds. I started out in this company with no college degree and i have had 2 kids since i started. I have still been promoted 4 times in 4 years.

Pros

The managers were reasonable. The co-workers were nice. People were friendly and helpful in general. There was a lot of opportunities for advancement.

Cons

A little too conservative at times. The office and the equipment was outdated. The sick day policy was a little bit annoying.
