Pros

Benefits are great. Pay is reasonable. All my coworkers have been very competent and a joy to work with. They offer remote work for my role, which is great. WLB is among the best i've had. Managers are great and really do seem to care. The work can be interesting, although it can get monotonous at times

Cons

Shift work schedule in my department can be rough. Company stock has not been performing as well as expected. Not sure how well the type of work we do in my department will carry over when looking for other opportunities. Unsure how readily available advancement opportunities are in my department.
