Pros

Strong Work/life balance Friendly and approachable colleagues Generous vacation and time-off schedule Above average benefits International footprint allows for collaboration globally

Cons

Over-emphasis on shareholder opinion, which translates to a focus on short-term tactics rather than long-term strategies to improve the company's business Significant growing pains in an organization that has grown faster than its infrastructure Below average pay makes it difficult to attract top talents Lean travel policy and reimbursement process gives sponsors the impression of a company that competes on cost rather than on talent

Pros

The people who work at Icon are great people who get the job done. People are friendly and very helpful when you are new to teh area. They are organized and have very strict ways of dealing with organizational things. Many people have been tehre for a very long time and enjoy working for the company just like me. They train you on their systems- which are very good.

Cons

commute to location is not desirable. The traffic is awful going into Philadelphia but i don't want to sell my house to make the move just for the job because it is a horrible housing market.
