Pros

Awesome work environment/culture with a very cohesive team setting. Very fair compensation including bonuses, benefits, and incentives with an excellent work-life balance. Growing company, which is awesome in the Chicago market. Great upper and middle management team who truly care about their employees; focused on bringing in talented people and helping them grow. Tons of opportunity for both knowledge & career growth. Great brand; well recognized in the area. Perks: Extravagant holiday party with hotel package, a fridge constantly stocked with free pop and craft beer (on Fridays), casual dress on Fridays (jeans), constant free food, annual golf outing, health and wellness team, free in-building gym access, work with the latest technologies & fun team outings....just to name a few.

Cons

The absolute only con is that there is no-matching 401k. Other than that, it is the type of place anyone can make a life-long career at.
