Pros

Strong capital allows the company to pursue many possible business ventures, and they're very stable financially.

Cons

Too many pokers in the fire, and not willing to staff up to support the speed they want to move forward at. This is a "total compensation" company, so pay is lower than competitors.

I feel the same way, too often we start down one path and then there is a change. Some of this is necessity, some is a lack of discipline. We need to commit to less and get it done. We wish you all the best.

No question we are a total compensation company. Paying 11% match+contribution is expensive but we think worthwhile. We wish you all the best in your future.

Poor management

Pros

Great co-workers and helpful corporate team

Cons

Awful management, if you're good at your job they keep you there and there's not much room to grow. Other divisions are better than some. High turnover
