Pros

-Flexible schedule -Easy job- very little pressure

Cons

-Poor compensation/poor raises/poor bonuses -Hard work hardly ever recognized -Stuck on 'cruise control' as are many of the older employees there -Completely unable to adapt to a changing market -A sinking ship with very little hope of recovery because of the above -The Danvers location is a sh*t hole converted warehouse with rodent and insect infestation -Upper management is clueless and very much an "Old Boys" club -Trouble attracting young talent because of the old/slow culture -Very little motivation to work hard because of much of the above -Very much a '9-5' type workplace, where going the extra mile is never done because its never recognized on the back end -The HR staff can be quite abrasive at times -Constant reorganizations left me with over a half dozen bosses in a 3 year time frame -Owned and managed by a German company who looks down their noses at the American development teams

Pros

Benefits and location are the only pros to working here

Cons

Very toxic environment, almost no opportunities for raises or growth despite what they tell you. They lied about a lot of things I asked about when I interviewed for the position.
