Pros

40% off New Balance shoes, free parking. Some of the employees are cool.

Cons

Company culture is very much an old boys club. Office looks sleek externally but is always messy with boxes making it difficult to get around. No free coffee or food or anything provided for employees. Office wifi is very slow. Promotions are only given to those that are close buddies with senior leadership. Diversity is scarce and company culture does little to address constant microaggressions. Also terrible work/life balance, your constantly asked to do job related-tasks on weekends.
