Pros
Stability Slow pace Lots of time to start personal projects Located in downtown Some good benefits Upper management is great
Cons
Middle management is the worst I have seen, they all fear for their jobs and want to feel good by doing the work their way and cutting their people's ideas off. They just want to impress their managers. Too many passive-aggressive people. Too much talking and little action. Directors are the same as nothing, they are in a stable position and it is not convenient for them to improve anything. The round-table discussions are pathetic. Military culture, the ones who express their opinions are doomed Business throws the ball to IS court, and IS does the same to business, no ownership, nobody looks for solutions, nobody embraces a project, they just want to cover their asses by blaming someone else. Of course nobody embraces a project, there is no recognition by results, but by favoritism and seniority. Lack of communication among departments and among people in the same department. People don't come first, if you get in, you are just one more.
