Not a great place to work.

Pros

Good Pay. Benefits ok. Co-workers were nice. Walking path nearby and on-site workout facility. Great cafeteria with good variety of food.

Cons

Hourly office workers held to different standards than salary. No flexibility towards employees needing to change work hours in order to further education. Employees felt as if they were walking on egg shells around managers. Rigid dress code for employees never in contact with customers. No balance between work/life for employees.

Pros

The bonus is nice. The 401K plan is generous.

Cons

The CEO is following the GE model of forcing the elimination of the bottom 5% performers and employee morale is at an all time low.
