Work hours are easy and much more lax when compared to typical Fortune 500-type companies; 40-hours/week is what most work here Family-friendly; alot of consideration given to the personal demands and allows for individuals to take time off for personal demands and, in some instances, bring kids to work if schedule allows Social mission; assisting the surrounding Princeton area with such things as Habitat For Humanity, etc... Employees are allowed off 1 day per year for 'community assistance' which can be applied if you are chapperoning your kid's fieldtrip at school, etc... Almost no travel Reasonable Benefits Job Security - This company has thrived during the current economic recession. I have received salaray increases and bonuses for the last few years.

Minpunten
Too many fiefdoms creates too much red tape on getting work done. This creates frustration, ineficiencies, and other negative aspects that should easily be avoided. For a company of this size (mid-size of ~5,000), it is truly disappointing of the overabundance of redtape and fiefdoms that must be overcome to get work done. Having worked at Fortune 100 companies, there should be no execuse for these kind of problems at a smaller company like this. Within IT, there appears to be many unqualified individuals of leadership positions. Such appointments appear to have occurred due to long-standing tenure having ben employed here for 10+ years, personal relationships (married couples working in the same division!), and a perpetual problem of unqualified managers appointing subordinate managers whom then are less qualified. The pay is commensurable for mid-size companies in south jersey/PA. This is a not-for-profit organization, so ETS is not attempting to pay competitively as NYC or public Fortune 250 companies. Moreso, there is no 'huge bonus' or similar 'large raise' opportunities due to the company's conservative pay schedule.
