Pros

The salary was phenomenal. The travel was amazing. Was a super generous company, but now due to company's poor performance, they have "hunkered down," where these fringe benefits go away.

Cons

I did the job of 3 people. It is truly impossible to be "caught up," and everything is always urgent and pressing. Too many competing priorities creates a stressful environment. Not only that, but you have too many managers as you report to your business unit manager and then to other managers of business units you support/service on a dotted line basis. Would definitely never recommend this company to anyone.

Pros

Felt like part of a team, learned something new every day, co-workers felt like friends, great place to gain new skills

Cons

I was a contracted hire at this company, and due to financial and legal reasons, I was limited in what I could do as a worker there, and outside of my immediate group of co-workers, I was treated as "just a number." The only thing on the minds of upper management was "when will that contractor be let go so we can save money." They had the nerve to force me to leave during the holidays with little more than than a "Thanks and good luck."

They are experiencing corporation-wide restructuring, leading to a loss of positions.
