Pros

The people who work there are nice, good people for the most part. The company participates in charitable activities. Free candy as they are a subsidiary of Mars M&Ms.

Cons

Politics are HUGE here. It doesn't matter if you do the best job, just if you kiss the right backsides. A great number of employees that aren't team players/have bad attitudes get promoted.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is more open than most to letting people move to jobs outside their immediate field of expertise. If you want to try something new, get hired and then look around.

Cons

The politics go all the way down to the lowest levels. They are more interested in people skills than in technical skills.
