Pros

Down to earth people to work with; great people at the lower levels Not micromanaged Flexibility to go to the park during the daytime to de-stress and to learn about the customer's experiences - very nice perk!

Cons

Lack of leadership from the top - including levels below - all management levels. Leadership does not lead by example - all talk, no walk Heavy middle management impeding the company's agility strategy The infrastructure and architecture is outdated and unstable - it needs fixing before moving forward with new projects Start managing the right things and stop managing the wrong things. The company is losing $$$ and cannot see it (too much heavy middle management and upper management and poor code/infrastructure/architecture) No IT strategy or alignment with projects Poor Communication and poor organization

Good benefits. Wasted Time.

Pros

The benefits offered through the company are great. Working for a company that is constantly growing offers some job security.

Cons

There are a lot of meetings that are repetitive and unnecessary causing a waste of time to do actual work.
