              Pros

              Fast-paced and good promotion opportunities for those who can perform well. Generally fairly good work life balance except for intense periods a few times a year when hours can get very long.

              Cons

              With the organizational changes in the past couple of years there has been very high turnover, putting stress on those who stay.

                Pros

                There is great leadership from up top, which really trickles down. There is a focus on personal and professional development. In addition, it's great working for a company that is doing well and has such a loyal consumer base.

                Cons

                Work/life balance is very different in each department - you either have too much to do or nothing to do. As anywhere else, favorites are played, which can be frustrating to those who work hard (which is just about everybody).

                      Any genuinely good way to answer the "biggest weakness" question without sounding like a cliche. Anyone have any good examples?

                      I interview with this place about a week and a half ago. I think it went well and in the interview she said the next step would be a writing example, so I did that. Sent it to them the day it was due and haven't heard back since. She did say any next steps would be after thanksgiving since everyone was busy and their calendars full last week. I followed up on Monday with an email, but haven't heard back. Maybe it's taking awhile or should I try again end of week? I would at least like feedback.
