Pros

The company tends to hire experienced people rather than entry level employees, so the pay tends to be higher than some companies, but not too high. They do annual surveys to ensure that their compensation is in line with the industry. Benefits tend to be good, with adequate paid time off and they contribute a good amount of your salary towards a retirement account for you.

Cons

Most all employees have a laptop and Blackberry and are expected to be on call at most hours. The computer systems being used are too numerous, buggy, and behind the times. Managers have been known to bring in their friends and give them far better positions and treatment than people with more tenure, knowledge, and experience.

Management styles can vary and affect your experience, upper management doesn’t seem to be well equipped to ensure the organization’s success but it is resilient nonetheless.
