Pros

Fifty percent match on 401k benefit. Fully paid medical insurance. Free snacks in the pantry area. Access to financial data.

Cons

Trading floor style desks. No privacy or cubicles. Micro managed time down to the second. Not enough restrooms for employees. (3 stalls per floor of aproximately 300 employees) Employees are treated as a number and not as an individual. Favoritism - different rules apply to different departments, and different people within a department. Morale is at an all time low.
