Pros

Lot's of good people (but lots of drones too) Beautiful campus

Cons

The IT group is there for you to serve them. No customer service what-so-ever. They hand you applications to do your job and they don't work or are ridiculous to use. Help Desk has been outsourced to India and is now a joke. Getting IT to do something is harder than getting things done in Washington DC. Overhead to move projects forward is a killer. Too many blockers who are rewarded for their intransigence. It is a culture of sheep. Keep your head low and don't make waves. Even though you want to do the right thing, they don't want any waves made, even if the project suffers. Lay-offs every September. More and more H1B visas being hired and less Americans. They like to celebrate 'diversity' there. Management refuses to take risks on NPD.

Pros

Good PTO and benefits. Work load is manageable but the company is going through a business transformation process which could increase workload to maximize efficiency.

Cons

Work life balance decreased steadily over the years with not a lot of room for growth within FP&A. Many roles were BPO’d out.
