Not a good place for experienced professionals
Pros: Vacation is probably the best benefit offered.  There is a full benefit package with many options, but they will cost you plenty.  401k match only occurs once a year after the full year and only if you were there the entire time until they grant it.  So much for compounding the investment.
Cons: If you haven't spent your career at the company, it's hard to advance.  There is a tendency toward time served counting for more than anything else.  They just announced the removal of Assistant V.P. at the 602 grade level, so those of us who were promoted to that last year drop to the same level as the 601 grade who didn't get that promotion.  They call it leveling the playing field.  I call it taking away a promotion I earned and making it look like a demotion on my personal record.  Pay is not very competitive and raises are difficult to get unless of course  you're a lifer.
