The work environment was going downhill fast when I left.

Pros

Casual attire. I don't really have many good things to say about this company, but I'm filling space because of the twenty word minimum on this field.

Cons

Uninspired management. Noisy, open, distracting work environment. No overtime, yet expectations of 60+ hours/week.

Pros

The paycheck clears. Some of the people are nice.

Cons

Everything else. As soon as I find a better job, even if it pays the same, I'm splitsville.

Pros

Pleasant co worker are abundant as well as mostly intelligent people. Sunny state, nice area and plenty of walking sidewalks around the complex as I walk a lot. I also use the workout and showers periodically at night.

Cons

The outlook of the company concerns me dearly. I am an old timer (6 years) and we are not turning a profit still. We are cutting back a lot and even the CEO has dumped millions of his own money to help us stay afloat. I genuinely like the company and people, but we can't seem to turn a profit. for whatever reason. I am afraid it will be a mass lay off so I am currently looking elsewhere. I have nothing 'bad' to say about the company except that the aura is negative and many people do indeed gossip and partake in immature activities like many reviews here state. Personally, I am over that, just looking for a stable and growing company to join so I can enjoy the last 3rd or so of my career. I have seen a CIO, VP, COO and 4 management members leave over the past 8 or 9 months (many by their own doing and many others through 'layoffs' and this has me concerned).
