Pros

Good benefits, work-life balance. Decent place to begin a career.

Cons

Very risk-averse, therefore not very innovative or creative. A second-tier employer losing all their good people.

Pros

Easy work, decent hours, incredible pay for just answering the phone. lots of overtime available if you want to pick it up.

Cons

Take a LOT of verbal abuse from customers, if management doesn't like you for any reason they will find the smallest detail to fire you over while others get away with literally breaking the law.

Pros

Decent benefits (only for those who have kids or baby boomers though, zero support for new grads or student loans). FTO, that you will never get to use because you’re so overworked. Decent SLT support but directors are overworked due to inefficient structure of depts. Decent corporate culture outside of analytics/DS teams.

Cons

It’s bizarre, most of the other technical people I talk to mention how underpaid they are and then ask where I’m interviewing like most of their peers are already interviewing too. Like across multiple depts I’ve ran into this. Lots of confusing restructuring. Our entire department got moved recently but it took them a month to put a meeting together to tell us about it, only to not tell us at the meeting. I still have no idea who I’m supposed to be working with external to my team. Layoffs potentially in horizon and no indication of growth or innovation to make up the difference. It used to be a decent place to work in Columbus but I just can’t rationalize working here anymore. It’s sad because I used to have a lot of loyalty to this company.
