Pros – Great benefits. Very little late night or week end work on your actual job.
Cons – Stack ranking requires you to constantly market yourself and your accomplishements to other managers. If you are the person who likes to work hard, do a great job, and be recognized for it, this is not the place for you. You have to spend 15-20% of your time telling other people how great you are. Those who do it well rise quickly.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
