Not What It Use to Be

Pros

My peers are often the very best part of my working day. Intelligent smart hardworking people who want to make a difference. Hard to do in a broken system.

Cons

There is little to no respect to those who have dedicated themselves in their areas of expertise - you are not rewarded for being a leader in your field. Promotions come from being a buddy with the CEO or someone else in his entourage vs merit based.

Pros

Nice office, great people, great coffee!

Cons

Compensation and benefit package are at below market, whereas the management keeps telling employees they're above market average. Management pretends to care about employees opinions and ideas, never listens to suggestions they ask for. Also, they say internal candidates will be given advantage over external ones, well, they aren't! No decent follow-up provided when an internal candidate is refused the position either - very discouraging.
