      Truly a wonderful company to work for.

      Pros

      Salaries, benefits, company culture, people. Bonus structures are extremely rewarding and the company definitely tries hard to care about all employees no matter how small.

      Cons

      Sometimes difficult to change the business in a positive way. Can be lots of red tape / challenges which can slow advancements down.

      Pros

      some of the people I worked with were great

      Cons

      *top-heavy org structure -- there are/were far too many bosses and not nearly enough individual contributors to actually do the work. *pre-meetings for meetings about meetings. *terrible work/life balance -- 10+ hour days 5 days a week in a salaried position with no comp. time, constant emails outside of work hours and on weekends (from people in same time zone). *zero transparency -- leaders didn't listen to employees, they only wanted to hear "yes" and completely ignored a lot of great new ideas while saying they were excited about change but always maintaining the status quo
