Pros

In general, the atmosphere and culture is great. People are eager to learn and help you learn.

Cons

The story is not the same for marketing, however. The marketing department is completely governed by politics. The management shows very little respect for many; while they encourage any advice, comments or concerns, management will hold whatever voiced against you for the remainder of your time there. The fact is, while a marketing employee, you are replaceable-- and they will not let you forget it.
