Pros
Great group of co-workers. Many of whom have been with the company a decade+ On-site cafe which offers "half-off" prices to all employees On-site gym Breakrooms with coffee/tea Competitive benefits including ESPP Regular team lunches/dinners Often have flexibility to work from home or take time off when needed
Cons
Penny-wise/pound-foolish policies (not wanting to spend 1k now to save 10k in employee hours wasted) Bare-bones support staff (very few admins/HR/IT) IT is mainly offshore and makes the name "help desk" ironic. There is a general air of "waiting for the axe to fall" ever since the acquisition a few years ago. Many feel the question of if they will be let go is not "if" but "when." Especially if they are on the higher end of the pay scale.
