Pros

Nice benefits and good working environment on the whole. I didn't have to deal with much interpersonal drama in the workplace. I felt that I was part of a team working together to solve problems we encountered.

Cons

PET services are or were poorly managed. The regional passed his workload onto my boss, who in turn passed many of his duties onto me and the other salaried positions. The hourly level employees were largely exempt from this due to overtime pay. My supervisor was seldom physically present during a crisis, preferring to try to manage the situation by phone. He would promise to be there by say 6am, which through experience we learned was 8 or 9 or maybe noon. I was routinely called in during these times as well as to fill in for absences outside of my typical working hours. When already working both night and day time shifts at times in the same week, it was very difficult to maintain any semblance of a normal sleep cycle much less a home life. Advice: learn to say "No" firmly, early and often.

Middle Management Is Oblivious

Pros

+ Nice campus and amenities. + Paid paternal leave

Cons

- Middle management and some executives have little to no interest in their employees. - Managers make fun of employees behind closed doors, nice to your face. Won't realize potential in people or give them opportunities and instead write them off (I've sat in these meetings). - No training or continuing education because they spent its budget elsewhere (shhh). - The benefits used to be great, but went downhill fast. Every year they cut them. - There's a "re-org" every year. - It's frowned upon if you don't take your laptop home with you. Do more with less! - Cubicled, silo structured teams ensure you have a meeting every minute of the day (see "take laptop home" comment above).
