Pros

Work life balance and carrer opportunities. Support for personal development. Pays up to $5k in tuition reimbursements. Work from home for a couple of days per week is a great feature. Excellent corporate employee culture. Employees demonstrate high respect and supportive. I highly recommend working for this company.

Cons

Decisions are not taken quick enough. Most of decisions made takes such a long time wich is frustrating some times. Healthcare plance are not so good. High copays and deductibles. Not many plans to choose from. Retirement plans have very restricted options. 401K savings can not be moved around when the market is not doing good.
