Pros

Health insurance and benefits are pretty nice with 7% 401k matching and bonuses based on company's performance. You get shares that vest every 2.5 years. Base pay is kinda low, although It averages out to a decent compensation package. I made 106k gross as a grade 5 engineer.

Cons

Lots of red tape to do anything. Promotion cycle past Associate is slow. High expectations for work including after hours changes. In operations it depends where you are but some managers are more flexible with employee working hours than others.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
