Pros

Good medical benefits, 401k. Fresh fruit provided along with lits of coffee. Good location, close to eateries and shopping.

Cons

Management plays favorites. HR sides with management if complaints are made. Lots of backstabbing, two-faced managers. Long term employees used for their hard work and knowledge but not rewarded. Promotions are few unless you are management. Bonus plan is unfair and not consistent across the units. Moral is very low. Company only looking to make money. Computer systems are very old. If you like to be micromanaged then this is the place for you.
