Pros

- 6.5% employer matched Defined Contribution Pension Plan - 15% discount ESPP

Cons

- performers are "promoted" for very little money and the expectation of new work added to existing role, while non-performers receive large pay increases and bonuses as incentive to do their day to day job. - left after two "promotions" to see original role posted, with a salary range $40,000 to $70,000 more than when I left after 6 years - each promotion garnered $5k raise or less, despite negotiations. - very little work-life balance. - management expects performing employees to pick up the slack for known non-performers, including after multiple internal stakeholder escalations and complaints.

Pros

Great environment and people. Lots of overtime available and bonuses during busy season.

Cons

I really enjoyed this job so the only con I can think of is that it is seasonal.
