      Pros

      -Great pay and benefits overall. -College tuition benefits. -Outside training benefits. -Health care benefits appeared to be above average. -Retirement benefits were above average.

      Cons

      -Mid to upper management is the worst that I have been exposed to in any sector and anywhere. -Toxic work environment overall - mostly due to a lack of top-down leadership. -Unprofessional managers at the upper-mid levels. -Pidgin holing is commonplace. -Work life balance is non-existent. You are considered to be working 24/7/365. -Disjointed communications between managers and groups leading to constant conflict and animosity. -Mandatory "bottom 10%" employee rating system - regardless of how long employee had been aboard or size of group. -Very poor CISO - somewhat technically proficient but a poor leader.

      Pros

      Job only as good as immediate manager. Salary is Ok ish Benefit options are ok not great.

      Cons

      1) Retaliation is a way of life at this company going back to 2018 and becoming worse since 2) Mid level managers are very efficient at passively insulting the Teams they are responsible for. 3) It is nearly impossible to advance in the company. 4) When you try to post to another department - your Mid level manager will do the best to stop you from advancing. Some have close friends in HR that will even have you submit a new application in an attempt to accuse the other department of recruiting you. I have experienced this. 5) The only way to increase pay and experience is by leaving the company. 6) It use to be a culture of lets help others when there is a problem, now it is lets find who to blame for upper mangers rushing a project before all risks are identified. 7) If you are taking a new Job - professionally push for higher Salary once you are in raises will be very small.
