Pros

Nominally priced medical insurance. Most departments offer tons of OT if you want it. Good area to work in. Quarterly/yearly bonuses for sales/processing teams. Yearly bonuses for everyone else. Work at home is offered to some.

Cons

Work at home isn't continually offered, so you never know when it will open up again. All of the departments are kept separate and never have a clear understanding of what everyone else does. Which is where the customer suffers if departments have to communicate to get something done for them. Within departments, there are so many different ways to complete the same tasks. Lots of turnover at all levels, even upper management.

Pros

The best company I’ve ever worked for.

Cons

Really can’t think of many. It’s heavily matrixed but that’s to be expected.

Pros

Generous, old-school benefits. Almost twice the PTO as other places I've worked, excellent healthcare, 401K matching, etc. Many high-quality colleagues and a generally mellow, polite business culture.

Cons

Multiple competing bureaucracies, internal consultancies, a computer-illiterate 'stakeholder' class with permission to disrupt anything, and perverse incentives driving waste.
