Pros
- People in the department (manager and below) are friendly and have similar interests - Location - Health insurance coverage is pretty good - Atmosphere (good work/life balance)
Cons
- Salary Salary Salary: Many positions start at 30k and there is little to no negotiation to raise it. Meanwhile, the execs get paid above industry standard. - Raises: The standard raise here is 3%. Yes 3%. Barely above inflation rate. You have to fight tooth and nail to get above that and if you do they let you know that its a "big deal"... almost guilting you for it. The reason being that your raise comes out of the departments budget and when the department head goes over budget, their raise is affected. - Bonuses: Basically non existent for anyone manager and below aside from the two $25 gift cards to your choice of Amazon, Whole Foods, Dunkin Donuts or Starbucks at the end of the year. - Management/HR: Picks favorites, very cliquey. Some very useless people at the top here who just end up promoting even more useless people.
