Pros

- The people I work with day-to-day are awesome - Boss has my best interests in mind - Great work/life balance (7.5 hour work day) - Good vacation - Large, impressive catalog - Many offices around the world - 401k with matching and health care

Cons

- Departments act like separate companies within the same office, with little to no interaction or inclusion with "outside departments" - Communication between low-level and high-level employees is nearly non-existent - Technology is outdated an incapable of handling the growing catalog, leading to some previously profitable clients being "forgotten" and frustration internally as completing simple tasks become difficult - No one really leaves, and no one gets fired, leaving many in a stagnant state of professional growth - Incompetence in some positions (entry-level to executive) negatively affects work flow and culture - Having ideas counter to the status quo can be frowned upon - Pay is below industry averages
