Pros

Quality people, very good health benefits, profitable company

Cons

Company culture and work environment -- genuine attempts have been made to improve, but now that I've been somewhere else for the first time in a long time, it is clear that they are still stuck in the 20th century. Inconsistent treatment of employees across different departments. Bottom line: I'm happier at another company but just as fulfilled professionally if not more so.

Average Employer - Typical Pitfalls

Pros

- Excellent facilities - Opportunity for advancement if ambitious enough - Job security (difficult to be let go, see cons for more info) - 3 weeks vacation starting for new hires - Talented R&D and technical departments

Cons

- Managers lacking in management skills (lack of 'working' managers creates disconnects between management and employees). - HR keeps under-performing individuals and 'dead weight' far too long. It's virtually impossible to be let go at this company creating heavier workloads for the few quality employees. - Management plays favorites which undermines the company's desire for employees to take initiatives to better the company. Ideas and process improvements from others not in 'the favorite few' circle are let to slip by the wayside. - Work/life balance is non-existent. Operating a global company has it's demands, yet staffing is so bare-bones that there is zero work/life balance. - Poor pay for positions when compared to other employers in the greater Boston area (Engineer positions are competitive, but business positions are severely lacking).
