Pros

Free insurance Job security The integrity of the company is stellar

Cons

Nepotism and Favoritism In some departments including the department that I worked, there is a high level of nepotism. If you are not part of the "boys' club" or if you don't socialize with them, you are not part of the "in" group. This culture is totally demoralizing to hard working employees. Your chances of being noticed through hard work and dedication will go unnoticed. You don't stand a chance no matter how much effort you put into to get noticed through hard work and dedication. This type of leadership and management style is totally unfair it decreases employee morale to an all time low. It was disheartening and demoralizing I could not stand it anymore I had to leave. Focus too much on fresh graduates The Company has put so much emphasis on newly graduates that just got hired, give them a year or two and they get promoted with lack of experience, skills and qualifications. They have forgotten about the the long term employees who are proven and tested commodities that have acquired skills through training and experience. These long term employees have proven their worth, loyalty and dedication to the company. The company rather see their long term employees leave one by one than giving them a second chance to re-evaluate their careers and giving them a chance to advance in the Company. Poor Pay The salary is below the industry standard. I've talked to a few long time employees. We feel that once we hit the salary cap, we won't get any raise even if we continue to do a great job and improve at our craft. The raise has stopped. There is yearly performance review. No matter how excellent you are at what you do and how well you work with your co-workers, you will get a handsome review but the raise is non existent. They provide excuses why you won't get the raise. Cold-Hearted Management and HR No matter how long you worked for the company, gave your whole life to service this company with hard work and dedication, when it's time to say goodbye they don't give you the dignity you asked for. I could say that HR and management are very cold-hearted people.

Pros

Stability and job security, formerly. Compressed work weeks and work-life balance, formerly. A 47-year no-layoff policy tested in two recessions and a pandemic. Formerly. Now? Well, all of those are gone, so it's hard to really cite anything other than that there's health care and the paychecks don't bounce.

Cons

The same stuff that's always been there, for one. Strict dress code. Dated systems they're trying to run away from as fast as humanly possible. Strict in-office culture with limited WFH. Little to no upward mobility; most senior management has been there for 20+ years and when someone does get promoted, the remaining jobs often seem to magically go to their buddies without getting bid. A complete inability to manage and coordinate anything effectively amongst multiple teams, which apparently is going to be somehow solved by laying off almost all the project/program managers. Oh, and on top of all that? Now, the new regime will lay you off, but first they'll gaslight you and claim the no-layoff policy never existed. Then they'll claim the team managers (who they conveniently also laid off) did the rankings that determined who got cut. Then they'll put a bunch of the survivors into a "bootcamp" and then make them interview to keep their jobs.
