Pros

Travel Respect for each other.....the Blue Box values are a foundation of the company and the way people work together Work life balance is okay unless you are an overachiever, then it can be endless 'opportunity' to contribute....

Cons

Pay is below the relative pay scales for other companies with similar positions open... The decisioning structure sometimes makes it hard to get traction on innovative ideas
