Vantaggi
Work life balance - typical hours are 8 to 5 with 4 weeks vacation; management encourages time off and gives a good amount of freedom in determining your daily hours and your time off Friendly co-workers - they are always willing to help and are happy to take time out of their day to work with you, but they may be too friendly at times; people don't like to challenge the ideas of others and will rarely show strong disagreements in team settings Laid-back atmosphere - there is typically a low stress level and no one seems to get too worked up about their job
Svantaggi
Below average salary and merit increases - the company claims to have a high level of 'total compensation' including retirement savings plans and good health benefits which is all somewhat true, but many people want a higher base salary level and a higher cash bonus; these pieces of compensation are much more tangible and could be used to attract better talent Lack of driven people - probably due to the lower salaries, limited pay for performance, and the laid back atmosphere; many people seem way to comfortable in their positions and are basically on auto pilot; they come in, do their job, and go home without putting in any extra effort; and, they are rewarded regardless since tenure is valued more than performance
