Pros

Great product discount (50%). Good free coffee in cafe. Not much else. Lila is trying but the entire exec management keeps changing every few months. 3 or 4 heads of sales in 3 years. same for head of HR.

Cons

This used to a great company. However hasn't made money in too many years. so it has been selling or shuttering businesses to raise money to pay for whats left and there's less and less of it each year. Shut down hearing aids. Just sold the professional installed business. Auto might be next. Two rounds of layoffs each year. Corporate functions like IT, finance, GBS etc in March and product related in October/November. The severance is pathetically low - 1 week per year worked. Also HR refuses to honor retention agreements at layoffs since you wont be there to collect retention. How stupid is that?
