Pros

The workplace is staffed with a younger crowd (mostly no more than 10 years out of college) that asks for a good deal of flexibility. This shines through in the average work day (can begin at 6am or 10am depending on individual preferences) and vacation time and even "working from home" with company laptops.

Cons

Executives are focused on issues other than the actual product associates work toward delivering on a daily basis. As such, the company is not likely to spend on unnecessary items that other companies might to boost morale and cohesion in the workplace (no work-sponsored extra-curricular events whatsoever).

Pros

The team does good work. The data is pretty concrete. The clients have been good to work with as well and there is a lot of learning involved.

Cons

NJ office is quiet isolated from what happens in the HQ in Glenview where the action is. If you are not happy in your role in NJ, nobody in HQ would really care. Its politics that work. Overall, its still not a bad place to work.
