Pros
- The company is working on some interesting technologies and solutions that have a surprisingly broad reach. Every time that you think you are getting a grasp on everything, you'll always learn about something else. - Company trusts employees to be self-directed (but sometimes does not offer enough direction). - Flexible working hours & ability to work from home. - Lots of charitable events and opportunities to get involved with the community. - Internal employee intranet acts as an online forum for all employees (a good place to ask questions and get answers).
Cons
- Limited access to executive-level management. Regular employees do not have keycard access to their floor and are discouraged from contacting them by email or speaking to them in passing. Who are these people? - Numerous reorganizations and layoffs in recent years have had a lasting impact on employee morale. - Benefits have taken a dive since the recession (hoping to see them bounce back as the economy stabilizes). - As evidenced by the number of people who choose to work from home, the new standard cubicle workspace is unworkable. Most floors are ghost towns.
