Pros

A very busy place. Lots of work. Stable company.

Cons

High turnover of management, lack of experienced people on the top, too much internal politics and covering up of incompetent staff. HR too new to their role. Not a long term career place, unless you have mortgage or family or regional affiliations.

Low salary. Hierarchical. Cliquish. If you find a line manager you like, stay where you are, otherwise it could be death of your career aspirations.

Cons

Low salaries; very hierachial, ciiquesh.

Pros

This is a great place for new grads to start out. The salary is a little under whelming, but it has come to my attention that it's relatively on par with other CRO's. In this industry, the people are expendable capital unless you have a PhD.

Cons

It's not a great place for professional development.. There could be so much potential if management could focus more on employee development and method efficiency.
