Pros

Mission Great People Nice office in Madison

Cons

There were a handful of good managers but they were handcuffed by THEIR inept bosses. Most management is out of touch as to the reality of goals, compensation and workflow processes. Employees have become nothing more than a cog. As many others have stated, the mission I love has been nothing more then lip service for quote a while. Money is the mission now.
