Pros

It is a business casual environment. They offer decent benefits and room for travel.

Cons

There is a lack of cooperation and communication between managers of different groups which causes a funnel effect to their respective subordinates. This leads to an atmosphere of dissent, inaccurate information, and lack of professionalism among co-workers. There is also an issue of personal matters affecting work and productivity. There is an appropriate time and place for personal problems and issues to be discussed the work place is never one of them.

Pros

The benefits are wonderful. Pay is somewhat competitive, learning opportunities abound. Very advanced hardware, a little slow on the uptake on how to manage it though.

Cons

Too much red tape. No clear vision on how to get things done. Advancement opps limited. Too many Silos.
