Pros

Love this company! Very helpful co-workers, challenging but rewarding work. Very flexible work hours and environment. I can't say enough about this place.

Cons

I really haven't found much yet. Computer hardware that we use on the desktop could be a little better. Maybe a shorter refresh cycle to allow us to get a better computer more often since this is our primary tool to do work with. However, it's probably better than most places.

Pros

Flexible work environment, open door policy at manager level all the way up to executives at corporate headquarters in Amsterdam, good balance between work and personal life, casual atmosphere, and not afraid to spend money on training and travel.

Cons

Pay scale was lower than the average for my position, personal growth was limited due to my position, and company was spinning off a part of the business so there were some layoffs.

Pros

Benefits, nice facilities (cafeteria etc), vacation/sick time, training

Cons

Management, working hours, co-workers, no recognition for a job well done (except for the managers' "favorites", they watched you like a hawk (we had to ask to go to the bathroom or get a drink)
