Pros

Good work-life balance, better-than-average compensation package.

  • 20 vacation days after the first year.
  • New hire program has 6-month salary increases for 3 years plus bonuses.
  • Startup vibe; expect to "wear multiple hats," which helps you learn new things.
Cons

Not much to do after the new hire program is done. Glass ceilings everywhere unless you know the right people. Many positions are full of people unfit for them.

Advice to Management

At this point, most new hires are aiming to stay for three years and then leave. Aim for longer retention. Also, correct immediately any misplacement of new hires in unsuitable positions.
