Pros

Good work environment, good people, not high stress. The products are best in class, I take pride knowing that I contribute to our success.

Cons

Pay can be uncompetitive, management seems to understand but is unable or unwilling to change HRs guidelines. Many people leave due to this.

Good Company, Slow to Change

Pros

I worked with some great, knowledgeable people who were amazing resources to learn from. The benefits are good, and the campus is safe and a great place to be. A lot of opportunities to grow in your work, and even further your formal education.

Cons

Adopting change is extremely slow and changes are implemented at a glacial pace. There are politics in just about every aspect of the job. Upward mobility is geared toward those with MBAs, and it very much is a boys' club. I encountered a lot of favoritism and resistance to newer, younger hires. When a need for new skills or employees arises, if an employee expresses interest in wanting to learn, usually they are ignored and outside talent is brought in instead - even if their skill set is similar. Too many chiefs in about every business unit. Some departments getting perks and privileges that not everyone else gets. Low pay.
