Pros

Even with all fairness, it's really hard for me to come up with any upside of working here. They do tend to pay slightly better than industry average - but I honestly don't think an additional couple of grand per year is still worth working here.

Cons

Way too much politics for such a small office. Tendency to isolate good people and force them to leave out of frustration. Management has a chip on their shoulder and anyone daring to sing a different tune better start packing their bags. Everyone too busy impressing everyone around them instead of trying to build solutions (do their job) . Important business impacting decisions made out of whim without putting the right amount of effort or thought; decisions are often made as a knee-jerk reaction. Insecure management always trying to watch their back - what does that say about the culture.

Pros

Office Location Free soda and candy

Cons

One of the worst companies I have worked for ever. No leadership, who is in charge here? VPs too hung up on their 'title' who have no vision or any idea how to run the company. Unnecessary chaos created no structure exists - even for such a small office. Almost every month at least 1 person is laid off - and almost always it's not the chums. Way too much upward management full of brown nose's. Everyone busy saving their neck and always a finger pointing game in play.

Pros

It's a great place for politicians

Cons

I was pretty much harassed by my mangers everyday. It's a demotivating work experience and the only motivation that keeps you going is the willingness to kiss-up in order to keep your job. The whole place is based on favoritism. My relationship with my managers spiraled out of control that I had to confront one of them for calling me an idiot. HR and my director did very little to resolve the issue, so you can't really trust them. It sucks because I did enjoy my job and my co-workers, but I couldn't deal with the hostile work environment that stemmed from my managers.
