Pros

The compensation is pretty good. The social committee works hard to encourage interaction with the employees around holidays and once in the summer.

Cons

Poor management choices, lack in praise to hard working employees, generally expected to work very long hours. My choice to go to school was not encouraged, but discouraged by several managers. Several people keep leaving and management takes its time to start the hiring process leaving our already short staffed group to struggle more. HR department is virtually non-existent. Groups working in different states often have serious differences cause friction between states.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
