Pros

The perks are the bait they dangle in front of your face in order to take control of your life. Take the keys, cash, and computers and you’ve signed your life away.

Cons

Micro-management No work life balance Workaholic culture “Family Structure” means they want to know who what when and where your are at all times. Pressures you to move “within” traveling distance of office despite being a 90% remote position (I should be able to live where I want!not just within a 20 min commute bc YOU want it that way) No actual vacations you are expected to work On call 24/7 If you like being out doors with 30 lbs steel toed boots and a 20 lbs back pack in the heat of summer and dead of winter trudging through boiler rooms, and climbing literal skyscrapers then this is the place for you. MICRO-MANAGEMENT HR lack of professionalism, when I left HR asked me how I thought “I had the right” to leave them and that I was stupid for leaving “a great company” and if I really was smart and a good engineer I would think again. (The audacity) I cannnot list all of the cons for they are far to great…

Pros

* Great business model at the foundation * Solid compensation program: Base salary + bonus * Sustained high profitability over the long term * Stable employement * Pension Plan

Cons

* Extremely hierarchical and regimented * Promotions based on favortism rather than true merit. Employees are precategorized and stigmatized on their ability for future career progression. * Extremely focused on metrics and internal objectives. This leads to box checking, cutting corners and bending rules to meet the numbers. * Extremely heavy workload. No work-life balance. * Management doesn't really incorporate employee feedback; they pretend to to check a box. * Quality of job suffers to keep up with quantity. Everything is becoming data driven and the data is often wrong. Enormous pressure to hit a button and accept at face value whatever the system spews out. * Our CEO builds fancy gold plated office buildings that aren't needed and pulled the plug on hybrid work to justify the investment in the real estate.
