Pros

Decent salary, but there's definitely more to life. Fair insurance benefits, but we pay for them dearly. Great body of work being done by passionate people, most of whom are burning out before my very eyes.

Cons

The best people in my office are finding jobs elsewhere, and I can't wait to join them. This company has penny-pinched and over-managed themselves to the point of failure. Hostile work environment and broken systems in conflict with work directives make it impossible to do one's job, whether entry-level PM, support personnel, or management. Key systems such as procurement and finance are outsourced to foreign countries.

Pros

Decent company, good stock plan, good people who want to see you grow

Cons

Very remote management makes things hard, very little team work is locally siloed so its hard for managers to understand the boots on the ground view. Managers are great people but spread very thin, sometimes they accept work before having staff for it(classic consulting move)
