Good benefits, flex hours, smart people, and annual layoff

Business Outlook

Pros

I enjoyed working here for several years. Very flexible, nice and smart people, good compensation, interesting projects.

Cons

Yearly layoff (regardless of your performance) really turns down and discourages employees around November/December. I saw off many colleagues who worked on the same floor. That was very depressing too.
