Pros

Nice environment. Every one knows each other even when working in various departments. The summer parties are wonderful. I made many new friends for life there. I would wake up everyday looking forward to going to work.

Cons

Great culture overall. However, no recognition for when you do a great job-no matter how many times you do it. My start time was 7 am daily. Came at 7:02 and was scolded as if it were an hour late. Started out wonderful there but it was not the way I imagined my work experience would be.

Pros

Great place for starting your career.You do get a lot od expsure and can have good networking.A good place to also expllore various opportunities as well

Cons

Really long hours to work.Eventhough you have the loveliest kitchen and interior,it does become pretty stressful.But once you get used to it you end up working longer than 50 hours a week.Considering the long hours we put up with,the salary I would say is really low.
