Pros

Flexible work/life balance in some cases. There are some really smart, really helpful people that work here but they are few and far between.

Cons

The technology is in the dark ages and all management cares about is shipping as many jobs overseas as possible. The recent reorganization was poorly communicated, poorly planned and poorly executed.

Pros

-Trustworthy immediate colleagues -Good work/life balance and flexibility

Cons

-Little career pathing within company. Organization is extremely siloed, and cheap as they simply aren't interested in paying for small things to advance one's career like local industry conferences and events such as team holiday dinners that would have minimal impact on the company's bottom line. -Pay not aligned with skills or talent marketplace -One would think a benefits/career consultant would have decent pay and benefits. This is not the case
