      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good benefits, salary and compensation package, gourmet cafeteria, on-site gym and work-out culture, location near waterfront with good running trails,

      Cons

      Highly political and territorial environment based on perception, nitpicky comments on non-performance related issues such as apparel, hair, etc dubbing it as constructive criticism; people take credit for your work giving you little recognition for a great job but emphasizing all your mistakes

      Hierarchical and limited information sharing across functional group. Highly talented but silo-ed employees.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fast paced and the opportunity to work with some talented individuals. Salary is generally consistent with industry. High degree of accountability. The potential and desire for a positive culture is there from the ground-up.

      Cons

      Limited training, practically no professional development. Often values style over substance. Not sure why the potential and desire for positive culture is not cultivated by senior management. Zero tolerance policy for mistakes. No work at home or other alternate work options.
