Pros

- very good place to start working, lots of things to learn and work on - some very qualified colleagues to work with

Cons

- they hire the cheap over the smart and end up with a seemingly high % of less than stellar employees. - top management does not communicate changes in benefits/policies, they tout improvements only for employees to find out their benefits have been slashed. As a result, the most qualified employees are leaving and the morale has been going down the drain for the past year. - there is little room for career growth at this point, although this is improving day by day as the most qualified persons leave the company.

Pros

I felt valued as an employee, but I was capable of so much more than what I was doing there. Good benefits, good work/life balance.

Cons

I was laid off due to cutbacks in the program. I would have been capable and willing to shift into a different role easily because they only used about 25% of my skills. But they didn't give me that opportunity.
