Pros

In my position the flexibility is great, however that isn't so at headquarters. They have discontinued the pension and are slowly rolling back other benefits. Each year less and less of our healthcare is covered but our premiums continue to go up. Raises haven't been keeping up with inflation so make sure you have negotiated a good salary up front because you will be stuck with it for awhile.

Cons

It seems management all know each other far too well and look out for one another as opposed to their subordinates. One must be able to learn and live with corporate politics to get anywhere in this company. In it's defense, I think they are on par with many other large corporations.

Pros

Great environment and people. Lots of overtime available and bonuses during busy season.

Cons

I really enjoyed this job so the only con I can think of is that it is seasonal.

Pros

Some of the direct Managers and team members but only because everyone sticks together because there constantly change and unclear expectations from upper management.

Cons

*Unclear commissions spread across multiple tracking systems that don't line up including sales done on various salesforce portals. Many teams members gave up trying to track or follow up because we were so busy. *They treat businesses like dollar signs and employees like numbers. *They "laid off" managers on the Tax/Audit team, some who had been with the company for decades and were the most supportive of their teams. *They are focused on buying up other software companies and products without having any protocols or streamlines in place for them, not to mention they still haven't properly done so for acquisitions in the last 5+ years.
