Pros

-Awesome social events outside of the office. Holiday parties, trips to the Cardinals game, picnics, kickball leagues and more -Casual dress in the office -The people are awesome. -Most of the employees are in their 20s and 30s -Lunch provided every Tuesday, breakfast provided every Friday -Awesome kitchen with snacks available every day -Foosball, candy machine and video games in office -Covered parking -Opportunities to voice your opinions and have your ideas heard -Company makes sure the employees are taken care off and appreciated.

Cons

-In the heart of Clayton, which doesn't really match the company's vibe. The company belongs somewhere that better matches our values. Not surrounded by banks and people in suits. -Upper management isn't very transparent about company changes -Every department's team lead has a very different managing style. One manager might say it's okay to go out to lunch during the day, while another might not allow it. -Bonuses aren't comparable to other companies. -Sometimes very quiet in office (not a whole lot of collaboration) -Not a great work-life balance. Responsibilities pile up, and sometimes have employees working well into the evenings to hit deadlines (but again, this is different from team to team) -Pay is below average for many of the departments (though this varies from team to team) -Upper management's schedules are FILLED with meetings, hard to make time for people who need to talk to them -Confusion about expectations and policies between departments -Constantly changing/revamping company goals and objectives. Hard to keep up with what is expected.
