Pros

It's a lucky day if you get a free lunch paid for by the company. It's in the same offices as Viacom and it's not so bad. You can feed off Viacom's positive outlook given out by their employees. A handful of people don't micro-manage and a few have a positive outlook. If you can find them, stick with them if not don't apply here and just move on. It's not worth it.

Cons

There aren't a lot of pros here in this company. They need to update everything is this company and that includes attitude and outlook for the future of this corporation. There are a handful that are optimistic and look for this change but change doesn't happen when there isn't any teamwork. There is a lot of drama and excessive micro-managing that take up a lot of work time. Firm says it supports work-life balance and flex schedule but they don't. They get you in there but then they get you working longer hours and they don't even support working remotely. The two presidents need to take a walk around the office a little more and interact with their people and they will see in their employees faces and demeanor that all is not well in their work place. Maybe they already know that, and that's why they don't really care to take the time to talk to everyone.

Pros

Lunch and learns are nice. And they do have clear career growth timelines.

Cons

They expect you to pay for daily parking which adds up fast. Not flexible WFH. Micromanagement and harsh. Lack of middle engineers because they all leave once they have experience yet leadership does nothing to retain.
