Pros

- great work culture: employee appreciation and engagement - good benefits: above average vacation days and they encourage work life balance - salary: pay is good

Cons

- The only negative for me is commute time from the city. However, they have a remote office in the city now which employees can use occasionally.

Great opportunities for a first job. Can move quickly through the career ladder.

Too much politics when it comes to job placement and better positions. It's not based off of performance.
