Pros

Catered breakfast Fun coworkers Metro accessible DC office

Cons

As MANY reviewers have mentioned, there are a lot of managers who only are there because of tenure/office politics. Don't expect anyone to be punished for being a terrible manager though. That would require accountability and we don't do that here. HR function provides little value - in the past 2 years, they've rolled out a new intranet that no one uses, rolled out a "safety" app that no one understands, and implemented a new review process that managers don't follow. All the while patting themselves in the back for all the CHANGES they're making while actually doing nothing. Execs only care about culture to the extent it makes their company more valuable. Employees are viewed as completely disposable. My advice to anyone interviewing - think very, very carefully about what you can get out of this job. You will not get a sales management position because they will be reserved for the "OGs". Negotiate for better pay because they WILL low-ball you.
