Pros

Work is pretty slow, so lot of leisurely time.

Cons

1. The company has a history of under-performance - its performance is significantly low as compared to its competitors. 2. More emphasis on physical presence than actual work being done. Don't have deadlines if you already intend to miss/push it. That sends the message that you are not serious. 3. 2-3 hour lunches are a norm rather than a luxury. Coming late and leaving early is fashionable too. 4. The recession saw a lot of good people leave and bad ones stay because of favoritism. Lot of politics, blame-game and favoritism. 5. HR-your job should be to find and RETAIN good workers; not to terminate them based on some man-made, inflexible rules.

Pros

The benefits are good so far just like any other company

Cons

Terrible managers Employees are getting away with traveling without using PTO when they are on EDO because they are friends with managers. This raises concerns regarding fairness, policy compliance, and equitable treatment of employees. If the manager dont like you, Your life will be hell and they will find the stupidest mistakes to kick you out. Again, some people get away of not using their pto and they will travel and claim they are working while manager is okay with it. Bunch of hypocrites
