Pros

- Lots of opportunities - Great managers that really listen to us in both professional and personal matters. - Salary is above average - If you are good, they are taking the time and money to show their appreciation. - Pay raise meeting with manager once a year on specific month.

Cons

- Lots of processes are taking a very long time because of the never-ending bureaucracy. - All the security guidelines are very strict , and actually decreases the laptop performance in about 15%.
