Pros

Computer equipment purchase program. Discount on healthy eating options. Wellness center on campus. 10% profit sharing. On campus fitness center(family members are not allowed)

Cons

. 15% lower salary then industry average. . No work life balance. . You need to have a very good relationship with middle management to get good bonus and hike. . Lay offs are very frequent, recently they laid off many due to bad planning of the management. Incompetent upper management with no visibility for future (not even for 3 months). . Unnecessary works imposed on you to impress superiors of your boss. . No training , no support to do your work. . They manipulate teams at will without any transition plans. . Hard work and success is never acknowledge or celebrated. . No fun activities or team building activities. . Many a time no place to sit, untill recently (after they fired many people). . Very mechanical work environment. . Only one boring party in entire year on Christmas that to you are not allowed if your are a contractor and families are not allowed.

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.
