Pros

Good compensation, reasonable hours; knowledgeable coworkers; competent, caring, knowledgeable middle management. Middle management fought for imployees interests and called bad situations as they saw them.

Cons

Upper management was disconnected from the actual mission at hand because they were too preoccupied with the bottom line so much that quality of work suffered. Upper management conducted a bloodbath of a random layoff by email in which no one knew why they were let go.

Pros

My pros are my manager and team coworkers. Outside of that not really a fan. I do well at what I do.

Cons

Honestly, ever since new management has come for the upper VPs and directors, a lot has shifted for the negative. Feels very micromanaging when we were told we were doing fine at home and there was no reason to have us come back in the office. Now suddenly we’re being forced back to the office. Other departments and I don’t really get along because there’s a bunch of petty people just trying to get others in trouble and all I’m doing is trying to do my job. Where I am at, everyone just talks all day and then complains about how much work they have.
