Pros

Nice co-workers, that's about it!

Cons

Middle to upper management really don't care about their people. Workforce reduction by salary not by performance.

Composition Specialist - Fun place to work. Tedious work at times with late hours.

Pros

I worked on financial documents for this company in their Charlotte office. You work hard in a relaxed atmosphere and build some pretty good friendships along the way. The training was solid and done by a seasoned pro. A wide range of folks work here, so that's good and bad. Plenty of overtime opportunities. Easy to be here.

Cons

The amenities and late-night shift hours are reminiscent of a bad hotel with flickering lights, but the friendships developed along the way more than make up for it. Work/Life balance is tough on 3rd shift, but if you like that, good for you. You don't get paid a ton of money, but you can make up for that with overtime which typically comes aplenty (though that may have changed). Again, there are a wide range of folks who work here who have slept varying amounts during the day, so be sure to tread lightly at times.

Pros

I work with great people. There is always a new project to keep things interesting. My supervisor lets me be pretty flexible with my hours.

Cons

Wish I could be compensated a little better. When they go through RIF it can be very disheartening. The commute for me is a bit of a stretch.
