Pros

Some good/smart/caring people still work here, but they are completely unrewarded despite carrying the company on their back.

Cons

- Terrible culture - in my first two weeks, two people independently came up to me and advised me that this is the worst company to work for and they'd be surprised if I lasted a year before quitting. I should have believed them. - Low pay - hasn't kept up with any sort of inflation and merit increases are not based on performance. - Top Heavy structure - way too many Directors/ Sr. Directors squabbling over fiefdoms creating meaningless work for everyone else and taking home the majority of the comp. First step management should do is streamline the whole corp leadership by having a few really good people responsible for much wider areas. - Poor benefits - Company given laptop/equipment is laughably bad. They tried to give me an obviously used and not cleaned headset when I started. These cost like $20 - the fact that they're trying to save money by re-using these is indicative of a lot of other issues the company faces.
