Pros

Interesting technology, great people (on team levels). Employee stock purchase plan is a nice adder. Good place to get a lot of experience quickly.

Cons

Very little consideration is given to the people actually doing the work. They are just resource upon which more and more work can be heaped, regardless of what is already in process. "Design by Decree" is the MO here -- if the product does not include a feature or function, and Senior Management decides it should, it will, in short order, regardless of the impact on existing projects and the resources needed.

A rudderless ship

Pros

Collaboration between certain groups works well and there are a few shining stars in the mediocre pile of people.

Cons

A rudderless ship with entrenched management and no career growth, it's place where many talented people languish and the sales force is given too little to sell with and no comp plan for new services so that any launch takes months or years. It's a fire drill culture and there's always something to pull people from place to place and task to task. Many people do not have the qualifications to succeed and many others hold data so close that it's a pity that the company doesn't have a culture that prizes communication. The morale in some of the remote offices is so depressing that it's become abysmal.
