Pros

* A few really smart people * Fruit. * Nice location

Cons

* Salary is ok, but not enough to compensate the workload, expectations, and amount of travel (they don't pay like BCG, but have similar expectations) *Management and senior management treats women with inappropriate worklife humor *Some clicks within the office that have started this year, have created an environment of either bullying or snide behavior which management has not stopped - or has partaken in. *Traveling with male managers can be very difficult to tolerate, and emotionally taxing. *The benefits of the company are not up to par with: performance expectations, growing industry standards, travel, and at times embarrassing to discuss with people who work at smaller firms; and have better. The benefits are so weak, that it's like a paycut! * The company feels stingy 90% of the time, then pats itself on the back the 10% of the time when it does anything. (eg: annual outing to racetrack, suddenly is a big deal when it's largely a cheesy event *The proper departments for handling issues, don't handle issues. *Team lead roles seem to be invented to be liaisons for managers that have no people skills; or are regrettable internal promotions. *The company is very disorganized, particularly senior management. *The new website is extremely infuriating to work with, and feels very disorganized and without a full picture. It also feels bare bones with no good content. *Management is completely out of touch with the TRUE feelings of employees; it's not good. *The product we sell is put together, largely, by unqualified, unemployed, nonexperts. *The company is willing to send employees to questionable or dangerous locations - and if you want to seem like a team player, you have to pretend to be willing and happy to go to these locations. *Company complains about travel costs, while forcing us to do excessive travel despite investment in technology to avoid it (especially to questionable locations). * Company seems to run in circles and feels like it's run by people right out of school. (even though it's 30 years old) * Company has eyes set on high growth, even though turn over is IMMENSE. So many people leave or have left because of the poor quality of management, product, and benefits. *There are REAL compliance issues: within departments, analyst conduct and usage, financials, and gov projects. It is a house of cards. *There is nobody looking after or representing the employees to management.
