One of the Worst Companies I have ever worked for.

Pros

Great health benefits if you participate in Healthy Pathways.

Cons

Lots that I can think of: 1. Long hours. 2. Often must work weekends. 3. No bonuses 4. No work from home options 5. Stressful environment 6. Glass cubes walls. Be prepared to be on display all day. 7. Unrealistic deadlines. 8. Poor Senior leadership. CEO seems more interested in being seen in the Ladue News than anything related to the company. 9. Company doesnt get rid of poor managers. They just shuffle them to another department to create the same problems there. 10. Crazy high turnover of staff. You would be hard pressed to find many people who have been there even a few years.
