Overall rating: 3/5
Employment status: current

Decent place to work; after 5 years, might be time to move on
Pros: Great health benefits
Nice, new offices depending on your group
Casual environment
Good pay for non-tech positions
Cons: Promotions very difficult to attain. My manager tried putting me in for a promo 3 times in a year and I got a gold star but I'm not visible enough
Make sure you have a good manager, otherwise your life will be hell
Review system promotes a lot of internal competition vs focusing on the work
Bad senior management, especially within OSB
Flat/falling stock price
