Pros: The pay is very competitive, and the staff has been very friendly.

Cons: I've heard the work-life balance can leave some things to be desired, but I can't speak from experience yet.

Pros: Great workers, A+ teamwork. People are always willing to help and go the extra mile.

Cons: Abusive and negligent management. No understanding of epidemiology, despite being a healthcare company.

Pros: The company really has a strong, diverse, and sometimes geeky (but not overly so) culture. Everyone around me was successful, intelligent, and generally motivated. It seems very much that success correlates with hard work here. There are a lot of opportunities for growth and learning, and I could easily approach anyone for help, which I took advantage of during my internship. A large chunk of the leadership consists of programmers and developers, which is both good and bad, but I view it as mostly good. Lastly, the internship experience was great. There were a lot of events, a lot of perks, and the social aspect of it was wonderful. I got the chance to meet a lot of awesome folks from around the country.

Cons: The location is a little troublesome. I personally love the area; you get a good amount of the activities associated with a city with a more laid-back feel, and there's a lot of outdoor activities. I say it's troublesome only because, if you have attachments (family, significant other, etc.), it's pretty hard to convince them to move out there to the area. But, then again, Chicago is pretty close by!
