Pros

Great benefits- the company invested in great health coverage for employees as well as a great 401k match. Fairly flexible schedules were offered as well as a good work/life balance. Employees never have to take work home.

Cons

Micromanagement gone wild. Employees often felt overworked and unappreciated. Many accomplishments went unnoticed, but even the slightest of mistakes was analyzed under a microscope and scarred your performance statistics. Not a lot of room for advancement.

Pros

Sparkling clean building, good team work from co workers, fairly decent pay and benefits. 16 personal days off per year.

Cons

Micro management style; must have learned management from Kim Jong Il. A number of staff referred to upper management as "Dear Leaders."
