Business Outlook
Pros
- Great pay, decent benefits - Huge company: there are opportunities everywhere - Amazing learning and growth opportunities - Work with a lot of smart people - Great potential for good work/life balance depending on which team you are on
Cons
- Yearly layoffs - Declining benefits (medical plan is currently horrendous) - Expect major workloads due understaffed / very lean departments & teams, but tight deadlines. Burnout is unavoidable - If you're in IT, expect to be treated a lot like a contractor even if you're an employee - Lots and lots of meetings - expect to work 50+ hour weeks to stay on track
