Business Outlook

Pros

Breakfast every now and then on Thursdays and really nice view from the office.

Cons

You pay for parking, they want you to attend meetings during your lunch, you don't get a bonus after working 18 months and the medical and dental are really not good deals. I have a lot of experience but they didn't want to start me off more than 26 which is an entry level but they wanted to use my experience to do more than what they were paying me. A lot of people don't stay at this company and you can see why. They get experience and go somewhere else.
