Experience highly depends on your location and position. I spent 5 years with the company, in two different positions and locations. First position in New England was not a positive experience. Second position in DMV area was very positive. Team was very talented, and local management was very caring and support. Amazing environment to learn.
Cons
Pay was not aligned with industry standard and we were unofficially encouraged to work more than 40 hours. Work-life balance could have been a bit better.

Cons
Some numbskulls seem to get into senior positions.
A "Consolidation" of buildings is underfunded, poorly planned, and drives chaos.
The push to squeeze every nickel of efficiency means that there isn't always money for equipment or team building events (below the VP level).
