Pros

The people. The staff consists mostly of entry level recent college graduates.

Cons

-Well below industry standard pay. Recently reduced for new hires as of 2011. -Staff is massively overworked (12.5 hour days for the first 7 business days of the month) -Inexperienced managers -Very little room for promotion. -Bonuses and raises over the last 4 years have been reduced to the point where employees feel disrespected to be even given one at all -Work is not challenging at all. Could possibly be performed by a well trained chimp.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
