      Pros

      Company makes decent product investment decisions. Good experience in the industry is benefiting all groups.

      Cons

      Seem to be running the place down.The nice coffee machines disappeared, choice of food reduced and prices going up in the cafe, no onsite car mechanic/detailing services any more, landscaping is reduced, etc. Sucks to see a once fun nice and place being driven to the ground. Seem to have no pride any more. Obvious boys club, bizarre promotions happening, which is not good for the business with such people in charge. If you suck up to a VP, you get the gig. Our actual talented people with integrity are heading away.

      Pros

      * Get some experience straight out of college * Hang with other new college grads before they bail too * Talk about cutting crab grass, workin' on the fence, going to the Olive Garden, getting a boat and other Middle Class Fancy things with the long timers. Exhilarating . * Having old guys accuse your gang of college hooligans of stealing sandwiches out of the fridge in the breakroom. Yep, totally us, can't get enough of those Liver and Onion sandwiches with a side of prune juice. Delicious!

      Cons

      * Everything, literally everything. Weekly meetings with your manager (what?), extreme distrust of employees, micro-management, denial of any new technologies, it just... goes on. I'm surprised it all still functions. I was there during the giant mergers and my lord what a mess.
