      Pros

      The flexibility you recieve as and employee is great. The dress code isn't to uptight

      The work is fairly easy. If you want a more challenging environment i would go somewhere else.

      Pros

      benefits, retirement plan, and you find supportive people internally from other departments, development events and PTO is a plus!

      Cons

      management is horrible! the leader from my department is not very supportive and the work environment is not friendly nor caring about or development. unfortunately, is very hard to move to another position, because there is a lot of lack from support from the leader. Also, from my personal experience, I LOVED the company and really did put a lot of effort into my work and everything and it was NOT appreciated. So, overall a big lack of understanding and support from leader.... gossip and terrible work enviornment and felt bullied!!!!

      Pros

      Good benefits overall. Lots of opportunities to change jobs within the company.

      Cons

      Salaries are not the greatest relative to other similar employers. The company is too large and bureaucratic to adapt quickly to changes in its environment. Management was out of touch and resistant to new ideas.
