Pros

The vacation policy and Health benefits are pretty good. In addition to vacation days, you also get Personal Business days, Kin Care days, and even a Volunteer day.

Cons

Some of the management decisions are questionable. Often it doesn't seem like the left hand knows what the right hand is doing. They spent months and untold millions of dollars to turn a building with perfectly acceptable offices in the Piscataway complex into one with open seating in order to ostensibly consolidate its real estate footprint, but then ended up laying off a huge chunk of the staff before even moving them in.

Pros

-Technological superior to most other companies with use of AI and promising future tech/programs -benefits and pay are very competetive -room for professional growth and advancement if you know how to work in a corporate environment -resume development and professional advancement

Cons

-leadership ideology doesnt match the company/CEOs mission statement or belief (company is said to be all for safety yet leaders get put in charge and quickly dismantle and lay off 3 quarters of the safety department) -Leadership changes structure to benefit themselves by having all support functions report to them instead of the CEO, this ensures all support functions take a back seat to production and financial gain to include their employees well being -Company restructured and reorganizes very often while showing no loyalty to the employees who work hard and want to stay, this leads to turn over of great employees.
