Pros

Many nice, hard working people there. Made a few friends for life.

Cons

You didn't know whether management from somewhere else in the company or your own boss would be looking to undercut you on any given day. Some days it would be both.

Pros

Flex time and very good knowledgeable people in the trenches.

Cons

This nearly 200 year old company still is trying to figure out what it is going to be when it grows up. Constant shifts in position. "Dynamic" would be a euphemism here. Constant change is counterproductive. Senior management almost seems to want to kill the company. Employees are not valued. Nothing positive ever happens here, if you don't count bonus time for senior management. Bonuses for everyone else miniscule to non-existent. Layoffs and downsizing are routine. The most negative environment and quirkiest senior management I have seen at any of the many companies I have been with.

Pros

Excellent management, interesting work, great team collaboration, competetive salaries, very good benefits, remote work options, & they seem to hire really nice people who are excellent at their jobs. Beautiful, modern home office.

Cons

There are none in my opinion- just wish I was closer to home office to stop in every once in awhile!
