Pros
The employees are enthusiastic coming in. You do get the opportunity to take control. The ELP program is fairly relaxed and can be a good introduction into the company. The benefits package is about average. the company sponsored move saves a headache for anyone out of town but do not take the relocation money.
Cons
The pay is WAY below average for anyone with more than a bachelor's degree. In fact, you will get paid less than the national average for someone with a B.S. They tout the working environments but they have already issued pay cuts and the new hires are getting the shaft because of the economy. NI touts itself as putting the employees first but the employees are taking it just as rough as most other IT firms in this economy and they were hardly getting paid what they deserved before all of the cutbacks. Good for experience, but there are secretaries that like their job, only have a high school education and will be earning as much as you in 10 years.
