Pros

Really good work life balance, 38h contract, all overtime is compensated with free time

Cons

Very limited possibilities to develop money wise. You are paid by seniority, not by what you achieve.

Pros

The perks are great (fitness center, child care, cafeterias, nice building) and the company is very active in the community. They do toy and food drives at Christmas time and they don't do any United Way. The former CEO (Gary B.) was very upfront and communicated honestly to everyone. It has the potential of being a dream company. Salaries are good and, when combined with bonuses, are excellent.

Cons

Directors and above have no connection to the rank and file. All management is directed upward and they run scared of other departments. Don't plan on getting their support if you want to exceed in your job or introduce a new idea. The support will come in verbal head bobs and will be followed by absence when reviews and politics emerge. Strategy associated with anything other than product development does not exist. Operations is solely focused on meeting the needs of the hour or the tactics of this year's remaining budget. Measurement does not come from value to the company, rather it is based on how many errors were made in your area. Directors and above have a long tenure, limiting opportunity. Feeble attempt to implement the Jack Welch method of purging the non performing 10-20%. At review time, your annual score is determined by comparisons to others within your title/department and are not directly tied to your performance review.
