Pros

It is a steady job. My manager was a good person, ally, and very supportive of the team (he has since left). The training in this specific position was pretty decent. It is a few months learning each product (department), before sales, so you have a well-rounded perspective on what you can offer customers. I appreciated that it gave me the ability to be honest to my customers when helping meet their needs, by offering real solutions.

Cons

Work culture is fairly toxic, although there were nice coworkers (just keep your head down and you will be fine). And the pay was half of Industry standard. Most pipeline leads are self-researched cold leads. There were employee satisfaction groups, but they didn't listen to the genuine needs of operations (I believe this was an unfortunate oversight, because the asks were very reasonable and would've improved efficiency and opportunities to perform better).

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.
