Pros

The health benefits are good.

Cons

The managers in our department all need to work on people management skills. A large fraction of our job is spent covering you’re a@# and blaming other departments for what goes wrong. We are micromanaged, expected to come in exactly on time and work more than eight hours a day. They have a high turnover of people. They promise tuition reimbursement that does not exist. Had I know all this before coming to work for this company, I would have stayed where I was before.

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.
