Corrupt Management, all politics, Supervisors are given promotion based on friendship not job knowledge.

Pros

Good benefits, structured bonus and raise schedule, nice employees (non-management)

Cons

The management is severely corrupt! HR does not protect employees, they only protect the very Supervisors and Managers that corrupt the policies, the very same policies they lay down. Nepotism and friendship dictate promotion, NOT years of dedicated service NOR work experience.

Management doesn't care about employees

Pros

Good place to be exposed to different technologies and work with a great team of coworkers. Very talented staff that's typically willing to mentor and freely share knowledge. Decent compensation.

Cons

The backoffice moved from Pleasanton to San Ramon in 2010. The move doubled the commute time for many employees. The company didn't care. The general impression given was 'suck it up or leave'. There was no consideration given or accomodation made to anyone whose commute went to hell. That attitude combined with the high turnover of middle managers makes employees feel devalued and apathetic.

Pros

I wish I could think of some pros, but I can't.

Cons

I worked as a contractor with Robert Half. My contract ended very abruptly and the headhunter never called me. She was part of a meeting that supposedly explained why I was being let go, but never bothered to call and share why. I even called her to ask for feedback and I was forwarded to someone else in the company who was very short with me/didn't provide any information. One day I had a job, the next day I didn't. I've never been fired before in my life and have no idea what happened or if I was even technically fired. It felt like a high school experience where everyone is talking about you and knows something about you, but no one will speak to you. Very sketchy! I strongly recommend not working with them.
