      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Bright people who respect each other. Overall compansation and benefit plans have been good. People work hard but the company attempts to create work-life balance.

      Cons

      BGI are always constantly reorganizing which can create confusion and many tactical decisions. While people are very courteous it can sometimes result in passive/aggressive behaviour. Overall, not enough emphasis of career development planning, although there are attempts to change that.

      Pros

      Great people to work with. Collaborative environment. Work with the brightest in the industry. Cutting edge innovation.

      Cons

      Work / life balance is difficult to manage. Lack of clear career progression. You make your own path at BGI, primarily via networking.
