Too many Chiefs

Pros

Benefits, but they are slowing getting worse as the years go on

Cons

Click-ish Management only promotes friends. If you aren't in the "fraternity" you are ignored and bypassed for promotions. The longer you work here the worse they treat you. Take more away than they give. Working through the pandemic, they only gave us one can of soda, and an extra "one day off" for the 3 years we were "essential workers"

Toxic and Stubborn

Pros

Lots of smart people. Big name company within the industry.

Cons

Toxic culture forces good employees to leave and the bad ones to stay. Unwilling to improve culture and old ways of business. Nepotism.

Annual layoffs are a thing

Pros

Co-workers were the only positive thing

Cons

Annual layoffs were common, regardless of performance. Always felt like the tallest blades of grass were the ones cut. The company gives off the churn and burn vibe when it comes to finding and using employees.
