Pros

Snacks, good time off, no fixed ill days, good training program, no formals wear required like some other companies,inception of new technology.

Cons

bad management, dont even give you your own cubicle, overhyped company which tries to be glamourous on the outside, but void inside, old software, over worked people, low wage hikes, hostile to immigrants, biased performance reviews, over all a closed system where people either cover their a$$ or bully people around to get ahead. Some teams are innovative, however most are doing what they were for a long long time...overall unreasonable people...

Pros

Benefits are among the best you will find anywhere. They have just finished watering bonuses down to average levels, however.

Cons

If you enjoy working with the jaded, the condescending, the incompetent, come on down! Not all management is bad but incompetence is tolerated....
