Pros

It's an easy-going atmosphere and the office is quiet. The laid back culture can be both good and bad, as there are extended periods where you sit around waiting to be assigned something to do.

Cons

They have absolutely no concept of how to scope out a technical project. They let business analysts drive "how" instead of "what", and since they are inevitably incapable of doing that, there were hundreds of people sitting around for six months - putting in creatively-written weekly status reports explaining what had been "accomplished", when in fact, everybody was blocked on 100% of their assigned tasks for six months because of a complete and utter lack of leadership. I finally gave up (as I couldn't take going to work and having absolutely nothing to do for months on end) and left.

Pros

Not many good things to say.

Cons

Small offices, extreme favoritism towards a part time employee. This person basically refuses to cover vacations. Weird how a part time employee can dictate to the branch director what she will or won't do and what hours she will or won't work. Last I checked, the Branch Director is the boss.

Pros

Company pays well and has a good reputation.

Cons

They are obsessed with appearances, and really don't care about the quality of your work. For example, if you are at your desk at 7am and you don't get any work done, you are fine. If you come in at 9am and get all your work done, you will be berated for not being in earlier
