Pros

Company itself is good - there are a lot of smart people and the technology is interesting Flexible work hours Training is encouraged as much as possible Possibly a lot of internal opportunities, depending on the group/jobs

Cons

IT is poorly managed, reactive, directionless and it's expected that you're working almost every available weekend. IT is generally understaffed for Network team.

Cons

Culture going thru a transition Highly political, some departments are in the "stab you in the back" mode All people managers should undergo training on how to actually manage resources

Management is terrible in general. TOO Many slackers and because company is doing well these idiots can hide. Decision making process is either non existent or no one takes responsibility.
