Business Outlook

Pros

Good company culture, there are a lot of senior level people who invest in you and want to see you succeed.. I was there as a summer intern in 2008, and the pay was great, another sign that they are interested in you. The building is also extremely cool, and new age. There are several stocked pantries that provide free food, coffee, and soft drinks.

Cons

Work is not intellectually stimulating, especially if you are in sales. From what I hear, the compensation is confusing, and the room to move up is political.
