Pros

Benefits, coworkers, not much else

Cons

Laying people off while continuing to hire high salary executives. Doing a hire freeze but still hiring depending on the department. It's kind of a disaster right now.

Keeps getting worse

Pros

Only thing left that is probably going to get taken away is some people get to have take home vehicles.

Cons

Honestly everything. Things keep getting worse. I remember getting hired to work here and being so excited to start my career here. Now I dread every day. Everything good has been taken away and we are treated like children. Even the most patient of us has begun revising their resumes. We have been told monkeys could do our job. We have been told anyone can do our job. Not to mention engineers are paid terribly for what all we have to put up with. Every day I wish I could quote Johnny Paycheck and tell management to “take this job and shove it”.
