Pros

Don't have to do any leading edge or hard stuff. Just hang out and shop at the company store. Remember to say yes and be average and you'll be fine. I was duped into coming here. At least I've figured out how to get by.

Cons

Claim to be a nice place but its hypocritical. Best advise is keep your head down, do as you're told, don't take any initiative or you'll be knocked down. Mgmt is not transparent at all to employees. The all hands meetings are just full of corp fluff talk with positive spin. When it really matters employees are treated like children and told only enough to keep them quiet. Not a great brand name on your résumé. You won't get head hunted because you work here unfortunately. The longer you stay you lose your edge and forget how to excel in the outside world.

Pros

Pay, not much else. Maybe free pizza.

Cons

Not a family company. They only care about making money.

Pros

Good benefits better than the standard. Career opportunities... People leave so there are opportunities to keep growing if you stay

Cons

Work is 24/7. You are expected to receive calls any time and the management doesn't have any idea of where they are going
