Pros

Good place to work if you can get on the exciting new program opportunities.

Cons

Career stagnation with too many entrenched bureaucracies, and senior management concerned more with protecting their lifestyles instead of creating value. Institutional friction and resistance to new business tools and methods that are far more economical at achieving the same results.

Pros

Good overall benefits package; work hours flexibility, access to many different types of personal support outside of work, casual dress code.

Cons

Stay connected to the right people or you will go nowhere. It is truly a “who you know” rather than “what you know” organization.

Business Outlook

Pros

Good benefits. Opportunity to move around due to size of the company. Not a lot of effort expected from employees, average performance is tolerated and often promoted.

Cons

HR transformation has reduced opportunities for strategic business partners, leading to talent leaving the company after many years. HR managers are selected based on connections rather than leadership skills. Company lacks true diversity which can be seen in org charts and predominantly male leadership promoted through good ol boy network. Slow moving and bureaucratic.
