Pros

Good products and sales team.

Cons

Executive teams constant paranoia that employees are trying to get away with something. Expected to work and be available 24/7. Constant downsizing and threat of bankruptcy. Perks like working from home and phone reimbursement have stopped. It's a sinking ship.

Pros

Benefits package was actually pretty good for medical. Vacation time moved to discretionary time off so in theory you had as much as you wanted.... as long as it didn't affect needs of the business.

Cons

Toxic working culture. weekly layoffs, brow beating to work faster, harder, smarter to cover layoffs and offshoring. Management is beyond disconnected from the workers.
