Pros

The environment is great. The employees are friendly, courteous, and helpful. Supervisor was friendly, courteous, respectful, and communicative. He attempted to relate and engage with you on a personable level and provide flexibility, support, and discretion for how you chose to pursue objectives, as well as feedback and resources for personal learning and development and encouragement to learn about different areas and departments of the company that might be of interest to you.

Cons

I did not feel there was a downside to working for the company itself. I had ample opportunity to learn the material and concepts that I was interested in even though they weren't directly part of my core tasks, as well as the opportunity to meet and learn from other industry workers who lent their experience and willingness to answer questions about the industry. The only issue that could have been improved was the occasional confusion over reporting of work hours as an intern, partly because they prefer you not to log hours overtime, and because new hire orientations can happen months to over a year after your start date.

Pros

Friendliness, work-life balance and very collaborative cross-functional env. Very goal and project oriented group and employees shared responsibilities of supporting all critical systems and business user can always count on the IT group. Lots of fun activities and goodies and very often surrounded by enthusiastic new title or product releases excitements and thus promoted a very positive and thriving corporate culture of which enabled forwarding thinking and cutting edge and new product market direction strategic planning.

Cons

Career advancement and growth can be more defined within the core group. Overall company goals could be funneled down to individual department and contributor's goals for common achievements.

Pros

Excellent products, genuine concern, effort and desire to make our products the best in the industry. Lots of opportunity to work with employees at every level. No formality or rigidity, very congenial atmosphere. Many really smart colleagues.

Cons

Some members of senior management are entrenched and distracted or otherwise insufficiently responsive to important issues as they arise. Payroll, finance and accounting systems are overly labor-intensive and are highly dysfunctional.
