Pros

Good teammates, projects, pay structure

Cons

- NO PARKING ON CAMPUS!! (They expect employees to find public/street parking nearby and walk almost a mile to reach work. The way we found about is by parking tickets, no internal communication was provided about the new rules). What kind of workplace is that? - DELIBERATE DELAY IN INTERNAL GREEN CARD application process by immigration team. Every little thing (wage determination, ETA filing, etc takes almost triple the time it used to take a year ago) - ANNOUNCING REMOVAL OF INTERNAL FEEDBACK FORUM with very little notice. Multiple people have expressed support against the removal as no alternate channel was provided. - A few other cons include: No 401k match/orthodontic coverage in the first 1 year, sub-standard free Friday lunch, only 6 holidays per year (only 5 since most work on Thanksgiving), horrible middle management
