Pros

"stable" company but actually it is not really. went through a lot churns of layoff and early retirement.

Cons

Salary is not competitive. Ageism is very strong. Once past 50 years old, you're a target to get yanked. Won't invest on anymore training on you. Senior executives are very White Male. The last five years they have been honing on getting women. Not many African or Asian American executives in North America, if any at all.

Pros

-Depending on the group, good work environment. -Depending on the group, really variable work as in you might get to work on a bunch of different projects throughout the year. -Good work life balance, almost never worked more than 40 hours a week.

Cons

-Low pay compared to other companies in the area. -Average Benefits. -Old School thinking (if you're not in your chair working, you're not really working. Also working from home is insane!)
