Pros

The pay is pretty good.

Cons

There are too many managers, most of whom are micro-managers. No actual work can get done. Managers say they want your input and then do whatever they want anyway. There is no respect for junior employees.

Pros

Decent pay and benefits. Monthly socials. Gym reimbursement. Start with twenty days off a year.

Cons

Favoritism. Communication is terrible. Dress attire is a double standard. Ladies cruise around (including the lobby and conference room area) in yoga pants and flip flops. I would like to wear basketball shorts a flip flops but know I can't. "Cooley Culture" is a thing of the past - was much better years ago.
