Pros

Nice new facility. Perks such as free, on-site gym with classes, free fountain drinks and on-site cafeteria.

Cons

No room for growth within my division. Trying to apply for a position outside the department is highly frowned upon. I did this once and my manager was very upset of my doing this, however, since I didn't get the position, nothing has been done to change my current role. I have spoken many times of how I am looking for greater challenges in my work responsibilities, but it falls on deaf ears.

Pros

Salary was in market range.

Cons

Manager took zero interest in me. I spoke to her 2 times in the 6 months I was there. It’s just an endless grind to various SEC and investor required reporting. By the time you finish you need to start over. Almost all process are broken. This $13B company runs on excel. It’s a real risk that this company collapses on itself. They purchase companies and destroy everything good about their cultures. I was so happy and content until they purchased us. The executives paint a fake picture of their culture to the street.
