Pros

onsite cafe, beautiful art throughout the buildings

Cons

The corporate culture has changed drastically in the past few years. The management seems focused on completing their own agendas and sabotaging others rather than taking care of clients. Also, there is low pay, a poor 401k match, incompetent management, and limited advancement opportunities.

Pros

Very little. Status of saying you work there.............. whatever that is worth.............?

Cons

Low pay. Employees dread their jobs. Morale is terrible. Everyone wants out. Massive stress, low wages, master-slave type employee relations; better off joining the Marines. At least you can release your stress in that line of work by firing BIG g u n s at the enemy forces. Bob James would be ashamed of what it has become. Zero fun. Run, don't walk.
