Pros

Nothing that I can think of. I'm still working here and really want to quit.

Cons

Overtime is a culture there. You won't get off work on time. Managers are always not there when you are facing difficulties. Workload is extremely heavy, yet they will not increase headcount. Corporate greed 1000%; minimum empathy for employees who work for them. No parking space available; You have to pay quite an expensive parking fee everyday if you drive to work. No chance of promotion as all the upper positions are occupied. Does NOT provide work-life balance to employees. Benefits given are just similar to any other companies, yet they expect us to do more and forfeit our free time. What a joke! My health has worsen everyday sicne I joined the copmpany, the biggest regret I had in my life is joining this awful company.

Pros

Great benefits, hybrid & remote roles, great colleagues to work with. Great vacation /time off. Helpful colleagues

Cons

Reorganizations (roughly 3 years), IT roles dwindling in North America(moving to India), teams can get very silo-ed, “not my role” = not helping you (when you are looking for answers/assistance), currently seeing a lot of movement out of New Jersey (roles moving to other parts of the country), some organizational charts can be confusing, huge organization(can be difficult at times pinpointing the exact team you may need to work with)
