Pros
They offer decent work-life balance and vacation days
Cons
management that has no functional/technical skills in the area they are managing because they were hired by their friends in senior management. Nobody knows what they are doing and so things never really get done adequately. No investment in the career of their employees which is why they have a low employee-retention. Management makes promises that never come to light unless it serves to benefit them more. Likewise, career opportunities are only offered when they serve to benefit the management more than the employee. The good ones end up leaving once they realize what's really going on. HR is almost nonexistent. I have never met my HR rep (if i have one) They do nothing to assist employees with HR-related issues. Intact, any complaint to HR usually comes back to bite the employee
