Pros

work-life balance is decent. campus is ok

Cons

not a merit based culture. promotions are based on a number of advocates. passive - aggressive style making it very difficult to make progress and collaborate openly many unmotivated "dinosaurs" that just want to coast along. no energy, no drive satisfaction survey is conducted annually, but results are not really acted upon

Pros

5 weeks vacation and Summer hours

Cons

Managers could yell at direct report and get away, because senior management cares more about managers than the working bees.
