Pros

People. A good mix of expertise in their respective fields. Salespeople. Expertise is unmatched. They meet well over 100+ people per day, who are also often experts. This exchange is usually honest. I have not, for example, ever had a salesman, sell me something that I did not need beyond my Continuing Education - Product representatives visit often, and give first-views of new products. Event Space wonderful resource for learning new technologies and how customers use the products. Vacation time. Two long Jewish holidays per year. Get out early for Friday Shabbat. 2 p.m. Good work/life balance.

Cons

Conservative management makes it difficult to push ideas through. Not necessarily a con, but be aware that you must also be mindful of the predominantly Hassidic culture. Some floors are separated male/female. Feels too big sometimes. Get lost in the mix.

Pros

Excellent coworkers with a good sense of camaraderie. Long breaks due to mandated Jewish holidays. Small benefits for discounted store purchases and occasional free lunches. Layoffs are virtually unheard of.

Cons

Abysmal flexibility and work/life balance. Unremarkable compensation. Utterly incompetent leadership from the very top to middle management. Convoluted and unclear team structure. No clear path to career growth. Religious and gender discrimination and nepotism. Suspicious and childlike treatment of all employees. Inadequate time off policies (no sick days or personal days, only 3 weeks of PTO a year). Absolute disdain for any remote work. Many Hasidic employees display poor interpersonal skills and struggle to communicate politely in English. Conflicting and nonsensical messaging from leadership. A tendency to punish every employee for the misdeeds of individuals, rather than allowing managers to manage.
