Pros
Very good work-life balance. Some co-workers are the best I've ever had since starting my career. Good benefits and vacation packages via human resources. Direct management cares about professional development and it was a great opportunity to learn a lot of new things.
Cons
All of the reviews stating that C&D is a "lean company" are correct and when working there we felt that. Short staffed and overworked temporary employees meaning high turnover rate and constant retraining. People are not held accountable for the work that they are assigned and push their work off onto other people because they are lazy. People will ask you to move a mountain for them but when you ask for help they will not give you an inch. There is a yearly "you matter" survey that has been going around for years but in all honesty I don't think we have ever seen any benefit from these surveys. Yearly merit increase and bonus is poor when the company posts record numbers due to pandemic panic buying. Constant revolving door of upper management which does not help when a team needs support from the top.
